Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePerformance of Stocker Cattle Managed On Pastures Over-Seeded With Annual ForagesMichael Martinez, Daniela Brown, Sidney Garrison et al.The goal of this study was to determine the performance of stocker calves managed on permanent pastures over-seeded with winter and summer annuals. Twenty-one 7-month-old Angus calves (BW = 263 ± 24 kg) sourced from the university farm, were randomly assigned to three treatments. The treatments were: i) Grass Hay Only (GHO; Control; 5 calves), ii) Permanent Pasture Only (PPO; … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 5 Aug 2026 · 889 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMethods for Growing Complete Feed for Livestock on the Forage Lands of West Kazakhstan in the Framework of Sustainable ManagementBeybit Nasiyev, Peizhi Yang, Azhar Latenova et al.Sustainable management of forage lands is critical for livestock productivity in the arid and semi-arid regions of West Kazakhstan, where pasture degradation and declining forage quality pose increasing challenges to agricultural sustainability. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of different grazing methods on the vegetation condition, productivity, and nutritional quality of pastures in West Kazakhstan. Pasture vegetation was assessed … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2026 · 1,458 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Impact of Changes in Forage Vegetation for Saiga (Saiga Tatarica) On Natural Pastures in The Steppe Zone of the West Kazakhstan RegionAmanay Myrzabayev, Zhanbolat Ibraibekov, Zhangeldi Ussenov et al.This study investigates the impact of recent climate changes and reduced anthropogenic pressure on the vegetation cover in the steppe regions of Russia and Kazakhstan, particularly focusing on the effects on saiga (Saiga tatarica) populations. By the late 1990s, a significant shift towards the dominance of grasses and the reduction of herbaceous plants in semi-arid and arid regions was observed, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 7 Feb 2026 · 1,765 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Study of Seasonal Patterns in Vegetation Diversity and Forage Yield DynamicsSema, Jasmal Ahmari Syamsu et al.This study examines the seasonal dynamics of vegetation diversity, forage yield, and nutrient quality in Tarabbi Village, Malili District, East Luwu Regency, conducted from July 2023 to July 2024. Using a survey approach and field measurements, data were collected through the Estimated Actual Weight method and Summed Dominance Ratio (SDR), complemented by Geographic Information System (GIS) technology for analysis.

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Hydroponic System for Purification of Anaerobically Treated Dairy Manure and Production of Wheat as a Nutritional Forage CropA. E. Ghaly, H.A. Farag, M. VermaA hydroponic system was developed and used for purification of an anaerobically treated dairy manure and production of forage crops. The effect of light duration, seeding rate and wastewater application rate on the crop yield and pollution potential reduction were studied. The results indicated that a wheat forage crop can be produced in 21 days from germination to harvest in … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 8,075 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Wheat Bran, EM Bacteria, Ammonium Nitrate and Fungal Additives on Fermentation and Forage Quality of Rice Straw SilageBin Yang, Jiahuan Liu, Dongmei Ma et al.The global ruminant industry is constrained by a persistent shortage of high-quality roughage, thus rendering the bioconversion of agricultural residues, such as rice straw, a critical priority. Nevertheless, the high lignification, silicification, and nitrogen deficiency of rice straw pose significant biological barriers to traditional ensiling. This study investigated the impact of various additives on rice straw silage quality. Six treatments … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2026 · 642 accessesView PDFCite
