Abstract

The objective of this study was to compare the feedlot and carcass performance of the PN Beef Program in relation to a conventional feedlot diet when both diets are combined with or without exogenous growth promotants.

Highlights

  • By the year 2050, the global population will be 9 billion people, resulting in an unprecedented global demand for food

  • When Rumensin and Tylan are fed in combination, average daily gain and feed efficiency can be improved by 3% and 4%, respectively
