Effect of supplementation frequency in feeding behavior, displacement patterns and forage intake of beef heifers [PDF]
Our work was carried out to evaluate forage intake, feeding behavior and displacement patterns of beef heifers fed exclusively on pasture or receiving oat grain, either daily (“frequent”) or from Monday to Friday (“infrequent”), in two phenological ...
