Kruger, L.P.; Nedambale, Tshimangadzo Lucky; Scholtz, M.M.; Webb, E.C. (Edward Cottington) (Elsevier, 2016-08)Routine handling procedures used in the management of a flock are not generally regarded as stressful and have not been extensively researched. The aim of this study was to determine the serum cortisol concentration after ...

Rumen microbial diversity of Bonsmara cattle using amplicon sequencing during a 120-day growth trial Linde, Dina Alida; Van Marle-Koster, Este; Du Toit, Cornelius Jacobus Lindeque; Scholtz, M.M.; Schokker, D. (South African Society for Animal Science, 2022-04-09)Improved understanding of the microbial populations during intensive feeding of feedlot cattle holds potential for optimizing production efficiency. Ionophores are used to increase the production and efficiency of ruminants ...
