Abstract

This investigation was conducted to study the substitution of urea and corn, on a nitrogen basis, for part or all of the protein supplement needed to balance a low protein fattening ration for steers, and also to study the effect of adding ten milligrams of stilbestrol per steer daily to a ration in which urea was used as the sole protein supplement in balancing the ration.
