Feedlot Cattle Pneumonias

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 1985
The etiology, epidemiology, clinical signs, and pathology of feedlot cattle pneumonias are discussed. This information enables a clinician with a feedlot cattle pneumonia problem to give prompt, useful advice on cause, prevention, and treatment based on findings of the feedlot visit.

Marbling in feedlot cattle

Australian Journal of Experimental Agriculture and Animal Husbandry, 1974
The degree of marbling and the thickness of subcutaneous fat at the 10th rib cut of the M. longissimus was studied in three groups of 450 kg Santa Gertrudis crossbred and Hereford steers fattened for 120 days on three grain-based diets in a commercial feedlot.

Suspected monensin toxicosis in feedlot cattle

Australian Veterinary Journal, 1985
SummarySuspected monensin toxicosis was seen in feedlot cattle aged 6 to 9 months. Twenty cattle died following inclusion of monensin in the feed at 400g/tonne, which was 13 times the recommended level. The deaths occurred over 2 weeks. Clinical signs were inappetance, respiratory distress and sudden death.

The Modern Feedlot for Finishing Cattle

Annual Review of Animal Biosciences, 2014
The modern beef feedlot has evolved into a complex system that is very dependent upon technology. Modern feedlots are organized into departments, often including the office, cattle, yard, feed milling, and feed departments, that allow for improvements in production efficiency through the specialization of management and labor.

Nutrition of Newly Received Feedlot Cattle

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 2015
The stress of transition from pasture to the feedlot environment creates unique and variable nutritional challenges. The factors that are used to assign a risk category for the likelihood of developing bovine respiratory disease include time in transit from their origin, which is likely to be highly correlated with the amount of time away from quality ...

Sudden Deaths in Yearling Feedlot Cattle

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1976
SUMMARY A survey of the causes for fatal diseases of yearling feedlot cattle was conducted on more than 407,000 cattle during a 14-month period. Of the 4,260 (1%) cattle that died during this period, 1,358 (32%) were categorized as cases of “sudden death syndrome.” Of the 11 most frequent causes of the syndrome, as determined at necropsy, only 4—bloat,

Laryngeal Contact Ulcers in Feedlot Cattle

Veterinary Pathology, 1980
Of 30,444 larynges from fattened cattle at three companies, 3,985 (13.1%) had contact ulcers or ulcer scars in the mucous membranes over the vocal processes and medial angles of the arytenoid cartilages. The incidence was higher in cattle fed during fall than in cattle fed during other seasons. We hypothesize: 1. that some feedlot cattle develop acute

Feedlot Processing and Arrival Cattle Management

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 2015
Acclimating newly arrived cattle in a feedlot setting can increase cattle confidence, reduce stress, improve immune function, and increase cattle well-being. Understanding cattle instincts and using low-stress handling techniques teaches cattle to trust their caregivers and work efficiently for them throughout the feeding period.

Brisket Disease in Yearling Feedlot Cattle

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1976
SUMMARY During all of 1974, we surveyed, for illnesses and deaths, about 407,000 yearling feedlot cattle maintained at 1,600 m altitude. Of 1,988 cattle necropsied, 116 (5.8%) had brisket disease. The malady occurred during all seasons but was most common throughout fall and winter.

Feeding Cattle without the Feedlot

2013 Kansas City, Missouri, July 21 - July 24, 2013, 2013
Abstract. Forage-based grazing is an alternative to the conventional feedlot production system. However, for this to be successfully adopted, alternative to the conventional feedlot production system must be developed and have comparable profitability.
