Vegetation, phosphorus, and dust gradients downwind from a cattle feedyard

Rangeland Ecology and Management, 2004
A native shortgrass pasture downwind from a 25,000-head beef cattle feedyard near Bushland, Tex. degraded after the feedyard was stocked in 1970. Objectives were to determine pre-1970 vegetation, quantify current vegetation, and describe changes in vegetation, soil P and dust deposition with distance from the feedyard.

Wearable Technology for Feedyard Safety

Journal of Agromedicine
Cattle feedyard workers are at high risk of heat stress and illness due to being outdoors for long hours in high heat and humidity. Wearable technology has the potential to provide a warning system so that at-risk workers can take a break, move into a shaded area, and hydrate before heat illness results in lost work time.The MākuSafe wearable device ...

Effects of aerosolized endotoxin in feedyard dust on weanling goats

Small Ruminant Research, 2002
Abstract Weanling female Spanish goats ( n =36) were randomly allotted to four treatment groups (each group, n =9): principal dust group with antibiotic; principal dust group without antibiotic; control group with antibiotic; and control group without antibiotic. The principals were exposed to twenty-two 4 h dust treatments in a closed tent.

Feedyard Managers and Veterinarian Response to a Delphi Feedyard Biosecurity Survey

American Association of Bovine Practitioners Conference Proceedings, 2006
Biosecurity is an important aspect of disease prevention in any agricultural production system. The beef feedyard is particularly vulnerable to disease introduction because of the large number of different cattle arriving from multiple sources. Additionally, the large concentration of animals makes a feedyard a likely target for bioterrorism from ...

Reasonable expectations for antibiotics in feedyards

American Association of Bovine Practitioners Conference Proceedings, 2013
Use of the Number Needed to Treat (NNT) statistic allows for evaluation and communication of reasonable treatment outcome expectations in populations. The NNT value for a treatment estimates the number of animals which need to be treated in order to make an outcome difference in 1 animal.
