Abstract

The major nutrient requirements as listed in Tables 1a and b are modifications of similar tables published by the National Research Council, Nutrient Requirements of Beef Cattle, fifth edition. They have been (1) rearranged to emphasize "English" weights rather than metric; (2) modified so that daily nutrient requirements and the nutrient concentration recommendations are in closer agreement and (3) expanded to include estimated requirements for pregnant yearling heifers of heavier weight and 2 year old heifer nursing calves.
