Urea and biuret as nonprotein nitrogen sources in cooked molasses blocks for steers fed prairie hay
TL;DR: This article evaluated sources of nonprotein nitrogen (NPN) in cooked molasses blocks supplemented to cattle fed prairie hay ad libitum for ruminal fermentation and found that intakes of forage OM, NDF and CP tended to increase.

Effects of wet corn gluten feed and intake level on diet digestibility and ruminal passage rate in steers.

TL;DR: It is suggested that WCGF increases OM and NDF digestion, and that limit feeding diets once daily might depress OM and DMI digestion, possibly due to decreased stability of the ruminal environment.

Branched-chain amino acids for growing cattle limit-fed soybean hull-based diets.
TL;DR: Responses in N balance and plasma AA concentrations of growing cattle limit-fed soybean hull-based diets demonstrate limitations in the basal supply of Leu and Val but not Ile provided that supplies of all other essential AA are met.
23
Effects of supplemental alfalfa hay on the digestion of soybean hull-based diets by cattle.
TL;DR: Addition of 30% alfalfa to diets consisting primarily of soybean hulls led to positive associative effects on diet digestibility, but al falfa additions led to increased liquid and solid passage rates, suggesting that the benefit was not a result of slower passage of soy bean hulls from the rumen.

Combinations of alfalfa hay and wet corn gluten feed in limit-fed growing diets for beef cattle.

TL;DR: Results suggest that the value of WCGF relative to steam-flaked corn in limit-fed growing diets might be improved in diets containing 30% AH relative to diets containing 10 or 20% AH, and the percentage of carcasses grading USDA Prime.
