Development of optimal feeding regimens for early and normal weaned beef calves. How should calves weaned early due to low grass quality and low milk yield of the dam be finishing-fed in order to optimize production efficiency and carcass quality. The results of the literature review will be used in following experiments (BSc-project)

Growth during rearing from weaning to calving, body condition scores and -measures and later milk yield of dairy heifers of three breeds (Jersey, HF and RD) raised on normal or high protein ration from 10 to 22 months of age. Experimental data from 3 yrs of experiment with 150 animals available for analyses. (MSc- or BSc-project)

Production performance and slaughter- and carcass quality of heavy Holstein Friesian young bulls. Three groups of bull calves were raised on different feeding regimes varying in concentrate/roughage ratio and with or without a compensatory growth period. Initial slaughter groups allow for quantitative estimation of accretion rates in body and carcass. Experimental datasets available for further analyses (MSc-project)

Will chicory roots compared with barley feeding be used to change CLA and other fatty acids in the meat of organic raised and finishing-fed dairy steers. Data from an experiemnt with 40 Holstein steers during the finishing period after the second grazing season are availbale. Data include production performance, slaughter and carcass quality characteristics, some meat quality characteristics as well as complete fatty acid profiles of the meat. MSc- or BSc-project.
