Effect of temporary weaning and creep feeding on calf growth and the reproductive efficiency of their Hereford dams [PDF]
Animal Bioscience, 2022 Objective The objective was to test if creep feeding (CF) improves the average daily gain (ADG) and weaning weight of calves submitted to temporary weaning (TW) and if the combination of CF and TW improves conception and pregnancy rates of cows.

Production response of lambs receiving creep feed while grazing two different pastures
South African Journal of Animal Science, 2012 The aim of the study was to determine the production responses of lambs receiving either creep feed or not while grazing two different pastures. The production of ewes within each treatment was also recorded. The study was conducted at both the Kromme Rhee and Langgewens Research Farms.

, 2009 Recent trends to develop farmland into improved irrigated pastures raise questions regarding the profitability of creep supplementing terminal-sired calves on these production systems. This study was initiated to answer these questions. Two previously established adjacent sprinkler-irrigated plots were separated into 2 paddocks.

Limit versus full creep for calves grazing late summer bluestem
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports, 1988 Limit-feeding a soybean meal/milo creep supplement (1696 crude protein, average 3.096 salt) was compared with ad libitum consumption of the same supplement without salt or with no supplementation. Little difference was evident in average daily gain of

Dried Distillers Grains as Creep Feed for Yearling Beef Cattle Grazing Sandhill Range
The Professional Animal Scientist, 2007 Seventy-nine crossbred summer and fall-born steers and heifers were stratified by weight, calving group, and sex and assigned to treatment or control. Yearlings in the treatment group (TRT; n = 40) grazed native summer Sandhill range and had access to ad

Effect of limited-creep feeding calves of spring-calving cows grazing native grass
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports, 1987 Two limited-creep feeding trials were conducted with spring-born, suckling calves on native grass. The high-energy creep rations containing an ionophore were fed during the last 63 or 85 days before weaning in the two trials.

Management Strategies for Lamb Production on Pasture-Based Systems in Subtropical Regions: A Review
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020 Sheep production on pasture plays an important role in subtropical climates around the world, with great economic and environmental relevance to those regions. However, this production is much lower than its true potential in subtropical regions, largely

Limit versus full creep-feeding of a high protein supplement to calves grazing late summer bluestem
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports, 1989 Limit creep-feeding a 36% protein supplement (avg. salt concentration = 7.9%) was compared with unlimited consumption of the same supplement without salt (full creep-feeding) and with no supplementation. Average daily gain of steer calves was increased

Environmental Evidence, 2021 Background Semi-natural pastures are unfertilized grasslands with a long history of traditional low-input grazing management. This kind of pastures are recognized for their high species richness. However, as a consequence of modernization of agriculture,
