Early-life feeding strategies play an important role in the development and long-term performance of dairy calves. Early rumen development facilitates the transition from a preruminant to a functional ruminant during weaning. Feeding methods, diet composition, and microbial colonization influence this process. The ai...

Corn silage is the primary forage used in Brazilian feedlot and dairy systems; however, its nutritional composition varies substantially across regions, which may impair diet formulation accuracy and animal performance. This study characterized the variability in nutrient composition of corn silage samples using a la...

Abstract Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of dry fiber plus solubles (DFS) inclusion, carbohydrase complex (CC) supplementation, and their interaction on nutrient digestibility, rumen fermentation parameters, performance and carcass characteristics of feedlot cattle. In Experiment 1, thirty rumen-...
