A study was conducted to evaluate the effects of supplementing feedlot finishing corn diets with dry corn gluten feed (CGF). Animal performance and carcass traits were compared with those obtained by feeding a barley-based diet typical of diets fed commercially in western Canadian feedlots. The second objective of the experiment was to evaluate the diets using the 1996 National Research Council (NRC) Beef (level 1 and 2) and Cornell Net Carbohydrate and Protein System (CNCPS, version 5.0) models to determine how well the models predict animal response. Crossbred beef steers (248) weighing 423 ± 20.5 kg were allocated to 24 pens and then six pens were assigned to each of four diets: (1) barley grain (13.8% crude protein, CP), (2) corn grain (9.2% CP), (3) corn grain supplemented with a low level (7%, DM basis) of CGF (CGF-low, 9.7% CP), and (4) corn grain supplemented with a high level (23%) of CGF (CGF-high, 11.7% CP). The barley grain was steam-rolled and the corn grain was dry-rolled. All diets contained 8% barley silage (DM basis). The cattle were adapted from a backgrounding diet to the experimental diets over a period of 28 d and then fed for a period of 136 d. During the adaptation phase cattle fed unsupplemented corn grew slower (P < 0.05) than the cattle fed the other diets (1.23 vs. 1.52 kg d-1). However, after day 42 of the study, cattle fed unsupplemented corn grew very rapidly such that gain for the entire feeding period was similar for cattle fed unsupplemented corn and barley diets (1.62 vs. 1.58, P > 0.05). Furthermore, growth rate was higher (P < 0.05) for cattle fed barley or unsupplemented corn than for cattle fed low or high levels of CGF (1.48 and 1.45 kg d-1, respectively). The dry matter intake (DMI) averaged 11.4 kg d-1 during the feeding period and was not affected (P > 0.05) by diet. Feed:gain ratio (kg DM:kg gain) was similar (P > 0.05) for cattle fed barley (7.09) and unsupplemented corn (7.38), but was higher (P < 0.05) for cattle fed CGF-high (7.92), and intermediate (P > 0.05) for those fed CGF-low (7.52). There were no differences in carcass composition between barley and corn-fed cattle, but those fed low and high levels of CGF had carcasses that were fatter with lower lean meat yield. The three models underestimated DMI of all four diets. When DMI was set to observed intake in the models, CNCPS accurately predicted ADG and F:G ratio for cattle fed corn diets, but all models underestimated ADG of cattle fed barley. All models correctly predicted that gain during the feeding period was not limited by protein supply. The results from this study indicate that rolled-corn diets containing about 9.5% CP, with 50% of the CP as DIP are adequate for feedlot cattle weighing more that 500 kg. Substituting dry CGF for corn grain reduces feed efficiency and gain due to the lower digestible energy content of CGF.

Abstract This experiment compared the performance response of supplementing corn gluten feed (CGF) or corn to calves grazing stockpiled tall fescue pastures over a 70-d period. Forty-four Angus x Simmental calves (238 ± 4 kg) were stratified across 6 treatments by BW and sex in a 2 x 3 factorial arrangement. Calves were supplemented cracked corn (n = 16) or CGF (n = 18). Calves were housed in 2 pastures and supplemented individually using the SmartFeed Pro feeding system, with all treatments represented in each pasture. Supplement DMI was programmed at 0.59, 0.87, or 1.13% BW. Calves which failed to train to the feeding system (n = 10) were treated as an un-supplemented control. Weight and flesh condition score (FCS) were recorded every 14-d, and ultrasound 12th rib fat thickness (FT) was measured on d 0 and 70. Data were analyzed with PROC GLM in SAS with supplement type as a main effect, sex as a fixed effect, and group as a random effect. Individual supplement DMI was included in the model as a covariate rather than a main effect due to high variation. Significance was defined at P ≤ 0.05 and means were separated using LSD. Initial BW, FCS, and FT were similar (P ≥ 0.12) among treatments. No differences (P ≥ 0.25) were observed in supplement DMI throughout the experiment. No differences (P ≥ 0.64) were observed in ADG and supplement G:F through 14 d. Through d 28 to 70, CGF-fed calves had greater (P ≤ 0.03) ADG and supplement G:F relative to corn-fed calves. Final FCS was greater (P &lt; 0.01) for CGF-supplemented calves relative to those supplemented corn, though FT was not different (P = 0.87). These data indicate that supplementing CGF rather than corn yields a greater performance response in beef calves grazing stockpiled tall fescue.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of different additives on the fermentation quality, bacterial community, and aerobic stability of total mixed ration (TMR) silage containing wet corn gluten feed (WCGF) and corn stover. The TMR was ensiled with four treatments: (1) no additive (control); (2) lactic acid bacteria (LAB); (3) fibrolytic enzyme (EN); (4) LAB + EN. The EN and LAB + EN decreased the neutral detergent fiber and acid detergent fiber contents. Additives led to a higher lactic acid (LA) content (p < 0.0001) compared to control at all ensiling times. Silages inoculated with LAB and LAB + EN had higher dry matter (p = 0.0007), LA (p < 0.0001) and acetic acid (AA) contents (p < 0.0001) compared to control. The LAB and LAB + EN had significantly lowest ammonia nitrogen among the treatments, while no significant difference occurred after days 7 of ensiling. Silages treated with LAB and LAB + EN had a higher LAB count (p < 0.0001) and a lower pH, yeast, and mold counts compared to other silages. The LAB and LAB + EN greatly increased the portions of Firmicutes and Lactobacillus (p < 0.0001, and p < 0.0001, respectively) and reduced undesirable bacteria. Inoculation with LAB + EN and LAB improved aerobic stability of TMR silages indicated by higher and more stable LA and AA contents, smaller rise in pH, and yeast count than other silages. The LAB + EN and LAB reduced microbial diversity and improved the fermentation quality and aerobic stability of TMR silage containing WCGF and corn stover.
