The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of supplemental dietary fat source on growth performance, carcass characteristics, and gas flux in finishing steers. Steers (N = 177) arrived at the CSU research feedlot and were stratified by arrival body weight (334 kg ± 13.73) then randomly assigned to one...

Narasin is an ionophore that has been shown to modify ruminal fermentation and reduce enteric methane (CH4) emissions; however, its effects vary depending on diet characteristics and forage quality. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of narasin inclusion on in vitro fermentation and gas and CH4 p...

Historically, dairy-derived calves have contributed approximately 20% of the annual U.S. beef supply. Recent adoption of beef genetics in dairy herds has enabled the production of beef × dairy crossbred calves for terminal beef production, potentially improving biological efficiency and environmental outcomes of feed...

The global warming potential (GWP) metric on a 100 year basis (GWP100) is currently the most common metric implemented by corporations in their greenhouse gas (GHG) inventories. However, GWP100 cannot adequately account for the short atmospheric lifespan of some GHG, such as CH4 which has a 12-yr atmospheric lifespan...
