In order to evaluate not apparent relationships in individual studies, variables measured in nine experiments were analyzed in set. These experiments tested levels and sources of supplement for beef heifers, on cool-season cultivated pasture. Data were stratified in two groups: with and without concentrate supplementation. Forage mass and leaf blades on offer as well as sward structure (height and leave:stem ratio) were similar for both groups. Supplemented heifers consumed forage with lesser neutral detergent fiber levels and presented higher average […]
