dc.description.abstract | Extensive and intensive cattle feeding methods were compared for their effect on nutrient distribution, pasture growth, cattle parameters, and economics. In the extensive system cattle were fed on the pasture by either bale processing or bale grazing methods and the manure was deposited directly. In the intensive system cattle were fed in the yard and an equivalent amount of manure per acre was spread on the pasture in either a raw or composted state. Measurements were taken of soil nutrient levels, residue levels, pasture forage growth, cattle weight and condition, feed consumption, and economic factors. | en_US |
