- Dry Matter Intake for Beef Cattle
The National Research Council’s (NRC) Nutrient Requirements of Beef Cattle includes a column for daily dry matter intake This is often mistaken to be the amount of dry matter that the cow must consume regardless of the quality of the feed
- Does the Percentage of Fat In Your Ground Beef Really Make a Difference . . .
We’ll sometimes call for 80 percent lean beef for extra juiciness in foods that are prone to drying out, like a well-done hamburger Conversely, we’ll use 90 percent lean beef in recipes with other sources of fat or moisture added, or where we want to minimize grease
- Understanding Feed Analysis | UNL Beef | Nebraska
Dry Matter (DM): Dry matter is the moisture-free content of the sample Because moisture dilutes the concentration of nutrients but does not have a major influence on intake (aside from severe deprivation), it is important to always balance and evaluate rations on a dry-matter basis
- Ground Beef Calculator To Learn More about the Ground Beef Study - USDA ARS
nd beef products containing any level of fat between 3% and 30% The Ground Beef Calculator generates a nutrient profile based on the fat (or lean) content of retail ground beef and the preparation methods speci ied (broiled patties, pan-broiled patties, loaves, or crumbles) This program complements the ground beef data availab
- Reducing the fat content in ground beef without sacrificing quality: A . . .
A 90 g beef patty made with fat replacer (1 5% + 10% water) resulted in patties containing 6 g of fat compared to 10 g of fat (in the control) and reduced calories from 190 to 140
- Nutrient Requirements of Beef Cattle - Merck Veterinary Manual
Beef cattle have relatively low dietary requirements for essential fatty acids, and typically these fatty acid needs are met by the inherent fat content of common feedstuffs (~1%–3 5% of dietary dry matter)
- Microsoft Word - Comparing Feedstuffs_SC Feb2007
As the water content increases in a feedstuff, the amounts of other nutrients present per pound of that feedstuff decrease In contrast, feed and forage nutrient analyses expressed as “dry matter” represent the percentages of nutrients present excluding water content
- Calculating dry matter intake to meet the nutrient requirements of the . . .
Using large round bales to feed beef cows limits a producer’s ability to precisely meet her nutrient requirements Accurately predicting feed intake and nutrient analysis of forages can help
