    Notes: Two experiments were carried out to determine whether the differences in intake and feeding value previously shown between two grass cultivars when offered to ruminants as chopped artificially dehydrated (dried) material could also be demonstrated when the grasses were offered in other forms. Two cultivars of tetraploid Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum), Sabalan and Tetila, were established in the same field in 1975. In 1976 they were grazed and conserved (two cuts of primary growth) as dried material or as silage.The composition of the herbage selected at pasture and conserved showed higher concentrations of normal detergent fibre and acid detergent fibre in the dry matter for Tetila than for Sabalan, but differences between cultivars in digestibility were small. In both grazing and winter feeding trials differences in voluntary intake between the two cultivars were not significant, but at pasture young beef cattle spent less time grazing and tended to spend more time ruminating on Tetila than Sabalan. There was no measure of animal performance at pasture but liveweight gain was 15% higher for Sabalan than Tetila when both were offered to young beef cattle as the sole feed of dried grass or of silage. The voluntary intakes of the three forms of feed were very similar, which in part reflected a similarity in digestibility. However, gains were lower for calves given silage than those given dried grass. This may have been due to a lower efficiency in the utilization of the nitrogeneous components of silage for tissue growth than those of dried grass.

    Notes: The digestibility of herbage selected by dairy cows, milk-fed calves, weaned calves and wether sheep was examined on four occasions each day as they strip-grazed together a daily allocation of herbage. The average quality of the material selected by each group was similar. Organic matter digestibility of the herbage selected declined from 0·274 to 0·223 as the average height of the sward fell from 16 to 6 cm; this decline was slightly more rapid for the cows than for the other stock. A similar trend was also evident in samples cut from the sward to simulate the horizon removed prior to each sampling time.

    Notes: The effects of severity of grazing on the herbage intake and milk production of continuously stocked British Friesian cows calving in February–March were examined in three experiments conducted in the years 1976–78 (experiments 1–3 respectively) using a put-and-take technique. In experiment 1 four grazing severities were imposed by maintaining swards with different herbage masses (2500, 3000, 3500, 4000 kg OM ha-1); in experiments 2 and 3 there were two severities of grazing maintained by keeping swards canopies at constant heights of 5 and 7 cm (experiment 2) and 5 and 7·2 cm (experiment 3). Cows were reallocated to treatment every 8 weeks in experiments 1 and 2 and there were three periods, whereas they all grazed throughout a 23-week period on the same treatment in the final trial.A decrease in the quantity of herbage on offer or in sward height reduced herbage intake and milk production in all experiments. Mean daily herbage OM intakes were 11·2, 12·2, 12·2 and 12·2 kg respectively in experiment 1, 12·2 and 13·2 kg respectively in experiment 2 and 12·2 and 152 kg respectively in experiment 3. Mean daily solids–corrected milk yields were 14·2, 15·2, 15·2 and 16·2 kg respectively in experiment 1, 14·2 and 16·2 kg respectively in experiment 2 and 12·2 and 17·2 kg respectively in experiment 3. It was apparent from the data obtained in the first two trials that grazing at a sward canopy height of 7 rather than 9 cm had little effect, but that at 5 cm there were significant depressions in both herbage intake and milk production. Milk yield was depressed to a greater extent when cows were kept on the same treatment for the whole season.

    Notes: Twenty-four Hereford × Friesian cows and their South Devon cross calves were allocated to three herbage allowances allotted daily for three periods of 8 weeks in a Latin square design. The daily allowances were 17, 34 and 51 g dry matter per kg cow plus calf live weight. Milk production was depressed by 0·2 and 1·2 kg d-1 at the medium and low allowances. The corresponding falls in liveweight gain were for cows 0·26 and 0·25, and for calves 0·27 and 0·24 kg d-1. Residual sward height after grazing gave a better indication of the animals' reaction to sward conditions and the management imposed than actual herbage allowance. The quantity per unit area and the composition of material present were important factors influencing intake. Calves were unable to compete with their dams to maintain herbage intake at the lower allowances and therefore are likely to benefit from additional feeding or creep grazing when residual sward height falls below 6cm for periods in excess of 1–2 weeks.

    Notes: Groups of eight Hereford × Friesian cows and their South Devon cross calves were set stocked over a 24-week grazing season at 3·23 (low), 3·21 (medium) or 4·24 (high) cows ha-1 together with their calves. For the first 8 weeks only two-thirds of the total area was grazed. Increasing the stocking rate from low to medium reduced daily milk yield and cow and calf liveweight gains by 1·2, 0·24 and 0·29 kg d-1 respectively, and from medium to high by 1·2, 0·24 and 0·23 kg d-1. The main sward factor influencing faecal output and herbage intake was the quantity of organic matter on the pastures but the digestibility of the herbage selected also exerted a significant effect on the intake of cows. Major depressions in the herbage intake of cows occurred once the average sward height fell below 7 cm. Output of calf live weight was 628, 658 and 743 kg ha-1 for the 3 stocking rates from low to high, and for cows 246, 179 and 30 kg ha-1. It was concluded that decisions on pasture management should be taken in relation to the cow rather than the calf on set-stocked swards.

    Notes: The antimicrobial activities of Lauricidin (glycerol monolaurate) and its formulations Lauricidin Plus F, and Lauricidin 812 were neutralized by Tweens 20 and 80. The quantitative relationship depended on the formulation of Lauricidin, the test organism and the concentration of the Tweens. In general Tween 20 and Tween 80 were similar in their abilities to neutralize the antimicrobial properties of Lauricidin. In most cases, (74% of the observations) 3.0% Tweens completely neutralized Lauricidin and its formulations.The effects of the Tweens on Lauricidin and Lauricidin Plus F were also studied quantitatively. In the presence of Lauricidin and Tweens, no inhibition was noticed and in most cases, the viable count was similar to the control. Lauricidin Plus F was much more potent than Lauricidin in inhibiting the organisms tested and the restoration of growth in the presence of the Tweens was not complete. The viable counts in the presence of Lauricidin Plus F and the Tweens were about two or more log cycles lower than the control.

    Notes: Aerobic plate counts on Plate Count Agar at 25°C were used to determine the time required to reach a microbial spoilage level of 1.0 × 107 C.F.U./g, for mechanically deboned chicken meat, minced fish and chicken sausage stored at 2°C. The storage times were 5, 8 and 9 days, respectively. Addition of citric acid (0.2%), ascorbic acid (0.2%) or lauricidin (250 ppm) alone extended the shelf-life by 0–2 days. The combination of lauricidin and citric acid or lauricidin and ascorbic acid extended the time required to reach a microbial spoilage level for mechanically deboned chicken meat by as much as 7 days, minced fish by as much 4 days and chicken sausage by 8 days.

    Notes: The movement of chloride ion and the movement and degradation of fluometuron in two soils of contrasting texture and structure was predicted with a simulation model which included terms for the degradation of fluometuron as a function of temperature and moisture. The simulated distributions of soil water, chloride ion and fluometuron were compared with the observations reported in a previous paper (Hance, Embling, Hill, Graham-Boyce & Nicholls, 1981), Soil waler contents and fluometuron distribution were simulated reasonably accurately. Movement of chloride to below 30 cm in both soils and degradation of fluometuron in the WRO sandy loam soil were not well simulated. The discrepancies between observed and predicted water contents and chloride distribution show the importance of measuring dynamic as well as static water properties. Therefore refined simulation models may need to account for pore continuity, soil particle movement and mobile and immobile categories of water.

    Notes: Chemical changes caused by heating in a continuous flow, helically coiled tube indirect UHT process system were evaluated and compared to a nonflow vat process system. A computerized procedure was developed to estimate the rates (R) and accumulated values (Fc) of chemical changes in the various stages of the UHT and vat thermal processes. The procedure could also be used to determine the conditions necessary to optimize quality and/or nutrient retention. Data were based on 300°F and 3.3 set holding time in the continuous process and 180°F for 30 min holding time in the vat system, Approximately 10% of the overall chemical changes occurred during the heating period for both processes, 88% and 87% during the holding periods, and 2% and 6% during the cooling respectively for the UHT and vat processes.

    Notes: The prevention of the green-gray discoloration of cooked liquid whole eggs was studied. Acidic chelating agents were added to raw liquid whole egg samples at pH 8.50. Samples were cooked at 100°C for 20 min, held over a steam bath for 60 min, and then measured for color. Results show the following approximate optimum concentrations will prevent the discoloration at p = 0.05: acetic acid, 0.19%; citric acid, 0.17%; Na2EDTA, 0.029%; lactic acid, 0.27%; malic acid, 0.22%; monosodium phosphate, 0.34%; propionic acid, 0.26%; and succinic acid, 0.27%. It was also found that the average maximum pH attained by raw liquid whole eggs when stored at 3°C for 21 days was 7.93 ± 0.19. A taste panel indicated that there were no significant differences in overall acceptability with the Na2EDTA and the monosodium phosphate treatments. The citric acid treatment was not significantly different from the control in flavor acceptability. Other treatments were judged to be inferior to the control.
