본 연구는 기후요인을 이용한 혼파초지 수량예측모형을 기초로 하여 시비, 파종 및 조성연차 요인을 단계적으로 적용하여 해석력이 높은 모형을 선정하는데 목적이 있다. 혼파초지 수량예측모형 구축 과정은 자료(풀사료 및 기상자료)수집, 가공, 분석 및 모형 구축의 순이었다. 여기서 수량예측모형은 기후, 시비, 파종 및 조성연차 요인을 고려하여 6가지를 구축하였으며, 해석력 및 풀사료 생산 이론 측면의 검토를 통해 최적의 모형을 선택하였다. 그 결과 기후, 시비 및 파종과 조성연차(조성연차의 그룹화) 요인을 고려한 Model VI이 선택되었다(해석력=53.8%). Model VI의 요인 별 해석력은 기후요인이 가장 크고(24.5%) 시비(17.8%), 파종(10.7%) 및 조성연차(0.8%) 요인의 순이었다. 그러나 건물수량과 하고일수 간에 나타난 정(+)의 상관관계는 지역별 및 적산변수 등의 관점에서 검토가 필요하다. 또한 시비량 및 파종량은 특정값에 집중적으로 분포하고 있어 이차항(Quadratic term)을 이용하여 적정 수준에 관한 연구가 요구된다.

Forty-two single-bearing and 42 twin-bearing mature Angus${\times}$Hereford cows were allocated, seven per cell to 3 replications of 2 stocking rates (3.2 cows/ha; medium stocking rate [MSR], and 3.8 cows/ha; high stocking rate [HSR]) to graze summer-active and winter-active pastures from late pregnancy to the weaning of their calves. Cow liveweights and growth of calves were recorded as well as estimates of pasture quantity and forage intake. Pasture quantity did not differ in the paddocks grazed by single- and twin-bearing cows during pregnancy, nor effectively did forage intake. Subsequently, intake was higher during mid-lactation especially with twin-rearing cows (25% higher than single-rearing cows at the MSR; 9% at the HSR). However, quantity of pasture decreased for twin-rearing cows and was less than that available to single-rearing cows as lactation progressed. Liveweights of twinrearing cows decreased by 16% from late pregnancy to weaning at the MSR, and by 14% at the HSR, compared to decreases of 1% for single-rearing cows. Twin calves were lighter at birth, had slower growth rates, and were lighter at weaning than single calves. In spite of weaning smaller calves twinning increased the output (kg of calf weaned) per cow and per ha, and increased the efficiency (kg calf weaned per unit of forage eaten by the cow) over single calf production by 46% at the MSR and by 58% at the HSR. Twinning also increased the marginal returns from investment in high input pastures required by the enterprise.

본 연구는 국산 야생화초지(Native wildflower p pasture: NWP, turf grass 6종 + 국산야생화 11종) 및 외국산 야생화초지(Introduced wildflower pasture; IWP, turf grass 6종 + 외국산야생화 9종)를 조성하여 계절별 개화시간, 개화지속 정도, 꽃의 색깔, 식생변화 및 초지에서의 동물상 등을 조사 분석하여 야생화초지의 개발에 필요한 초종 선발 및 구성, 혼파조합 등의 기초자료를 얻고자 실시하였다. 시험은 충남대학교 농과대학 초지 시험포장에서 1997년 8월부터 2000년 12월까지 수행하였으며 시험결과는 다음과 같다. 1) 야생화의 개화는 5월에서 9월까지 연속적으로 유지되었으며 꽃색깔은 비교적 다양하게 유지 되었다. 국내산 야생화의 경우 개화기간이 가장 긴 것은 벌노랑(Lotus corniculatus var. Japonicus)이었고, 원추리(Hemerocallis fulva), 범부채(Belamcanda chinenis), 벌개미취(Aster koraiensis) 등은 발아 및 정착이 느려 문제가 있었다. 외국산 야생화의 경우 국내산 야생화에 비해 초기생육 및 정착이 양호했으며, 꽃색깔도 화려하게 유지되었으나 기생초(Coreopsis tinctoria), 서양톱풀(Achillea millefolium), 원추천인국(Rudbeckia bicolor) 등은 초고가 크거나 강력한 지하경으로 우정되는 경향이었다. 2) 야생화 초지(NWP, IWP)의 적합한 turf grasses 는 계절별로 고른 식생을 유지한 tall fescue, perennial ryegrass, Kentucky bluegrass라 생각된다. 3) 국산 야생화초지의 식생분포는 톱풀(Achillea sibirica) > 벌노랑이(Lotus corniculatus var. Japonicus) > 패랭이꽃(Dianthus chinensis) > 질경이 (Plantago a asiatica) > 민들레(Taraxacum platycarpum) > 제비꽃(Viola mandshurica) > 벌개미취(Aster koraiensis) > 얼치기완두(Vicia tetasperma) > 매듭풀(Lespedeza s st$\psi$ulacea) > 원추리(Hemerocallis fulva) 순이었다. 봄철과 여름철에는 톱풀이, 가을철에는 벌노랑이가 가장 높은 분포를 나타냈으며 계절별로 일정한 분포를 유지한 것은 민들레였다. 한편, 외국산 야생화초지는 서양톱풀(Achillea millefolium) > 기생초(Coreopsis tinctoria) > 끈끈이대나물(Silene armeria) > 금계국(Coreopsis lanceolata) > 원추천인국(Rudbeckia bicolor) > 서양오이풀(Sanguisorba officinalis) > 수레국화(Centaurea cyanus) > 데이지( (Chrysanthemum leucanthemum) > 서양패랭이꽃(Dianthus petraeus) 순 이었다. 봄철에는 끈끈이대나물이, 여름철에는 서양톱풀이 가을철에는 기생초가 가장 높은 식생분포를 나타내었다. 3년 평균 총 야생화의 식생분포는 외국산 야생화초지가 국 산 야생화초지에 비해 2.27배 정도 높은 분포를 보여 다양한 국산야생화 초종도입과 선발 및 순도 높은 종자의 확보가 국산 야생화초지를 보급을 위해 우선적으로 선결해야할 과제라 하겠다. 4) 야생화 초지(NWP, IWP)는 관행 혼파초지나 하번초 혼파초지에 비하여 동물상이 다양하고 많게 분포되었으며 그중 외국산 야생화초지의 동물 개체수가 가장 많게 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 종합할 때, 야생화 초지는 봄부터 가을까지 야생화가 지속되었고, 양서류 및 곤충의 개체 수가 증가되었던 것으로 보아 야생화 초지의 공익적인 측면에서의 활용 가능성도 클 것으로 기대된다고 하겠다. 그러나 국산 야생화초지를 널리 보급하기 위해서는 무엇보다도 자생 야생화의 생육특성을 고려하여 다양하게 선발해야하고 재배증식을 통한 순도 높은 총자의 확보와 보급이 선행되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

This field experiment was conducted to determine the effect of grazing and cutting management on the forage production and botanical composition at different legumes sown swards of the experimental field of Livestock Experiment Station. in Suweon, from Aug. 1985 to Oct. 1988. The results obtained are as follows: 1. Dry matter yield of cutting management (1213.0 kg/lOa) was higher by 19% than that of grazing management (1016.8 kg/lOa). Yield of pasture mixtures including alfalfa both cutting and grazing were higher than those including ladino clover and red clover. Yield under grazing was inferior to cutting in the first year but superior in the second year. 2. Seasonal dry matter production under grazing showed 5 1% in spring, 33% in summer and 16% in autumn, but under cutting showed 46% in spring, 42% in summer and 12% in autumn. 3. Daily dry matter production per 10a under grazing is decreased 5.9 kg in spring, 5.5 kg in summer and 3.7 kg in autumn. But under cutting is decreased 8.7 kg in summer, 6.6 kg in spring and 3.4 kg in autumn. 4. Botanical compositions of mixtures swards involving ladino clover and red clover were not influenced by method of defoliation. But mixtures swards including alfalfa were highly influenced by method of defoliation. Alfalfa ratio at the time of final utilization under grazing was about 30%, but under cutting was about 70-80%.

In preparation for the ever-changing climate and unification of North Korea and South Korea, it is necessary to increase the grain self-sufficiency rate by selecting crops with good utilization in high-altitude regions. The principle is to sow pastures at the end of August. However, sowing occurs in spring because the sowing period is missed when the weather is bad or when the workforce is insufficient. Sometimes when the grassland is completely devastated, it is frequently sowed in spring. In addition, North Korea consists of a high-altitude regions, and has been devastated in a general mountainous region. As a result, the landscape is not good and it is vulnerable to natural disasters such as landslides. Therefore, to prevent this, pasture must be sowed in the high-altitude regions. The goal of this study was to evaluate and compare yield and feed value of pasture species and varieties by spring sowing in high-latitude regions. The study was conducted in Pyeongchang, Gangwon-do, which is 700m height above sea level. The pasture species and varieties was sown on April 24, 2022. Each treatment was carried out by sowing 30 kg/ha, the experiment field size was 1 m²(1m×1m), and randomized block design with tri-repeat. The total of 14 varieties was used in the study, 6 varieties of Orchardgrass (OG), 6 varieties of Tall fescue (TF) and 2 varieties of Perennial ryegrass (PRG). The grassland composition fertilization using (N:P₂O₅:K₂O at 80:200:70 kg/ha) was conducted and management fertilizer was N:P₂O₅:K₂O at 210:150:180 kg/ha. The first harvest was June 26,2022 and the second harvest was on August 16, 2022. For statistical analysis of the data, an Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was performed using the R3.6.3 software program, and all data was subjected to analysis using Duncan's multiple range test. Significance was set at the 5% level. The dry matter yield at the first harvest was the highest in PRG, and second harvest was the highest in TF (p < 0.05). Overall, PRG showed a trend of gradually decreasing growth, OG and TF showed a trend of gradually improving growth. This showed that PRG was considerably weaker to summer depression than other pasture species. Comparing the total dry matter yield, TF was the highest (4,565.45 kg/ha), but there was no significance difference with PRG (4,487.24 kg/ha) (p < 0.05). In addition, comparing the total TDN (total digestible nutrient) yield, TF was the highest (3147.33 kg/ha), second in PRG (2975.67 kg/ha) and third in OG (2052.33 kg/ha). Since this result is the data of the second harvests, if the result is derived by the end of next year, it will be provided as basic data for selection of pasture species and varieties suitable for spring seeding in high-altitude regions.

Automatic milking systems (AMS) rely upon voluntary cow traffic (the voluntary movement of cattle around a farm) for milk harvesting and feed consumption. Previous research on conventional milking systems has shown differences between dairy cow breeds for intake and milk production, however, the ability to manipulate voluntary cow traffic and milking frequency on AMS farms through breed selection is unknown. This study investigated the effect of breed (Holstein Friesian versus Illawarra) on voluntary cow traffic as determined by gate passes at the Camden AMS research farm dairy facility. Daily data on days in milk, milk yield, gate passes and milking frequency for 158 Holstein Friesian cows and 24 Illawarra cows were collated by month for the 2007 and 2008 years. Illawarra cows had 9% more gate passes/day than Holstein cows over the duration of the study; however, the milking frequency and milk yield of both breeds were similar. Gate passes were greatest for both breeds in early lactation and in the winter (June to August) and summer (December to February) seasons. These findings highlight an opportunity to translate increased voluntary cow movement associated with breed selection into increased milking frequencies, milk production and overall pasture-based AMS performance.

Four foreign pasture cultivars such as Lotus corniculatus cv. Maitland, Trifolium pratense cv. Deben, Lolium perenne cv. $S_{23}$ and .Dactylis glomerata cv. $S_{26}$ were tested with "Kwisan" series, a common upland soil in Southern part of Korea. The cultivars in single or mixture were grown in pot with two levels of light intensity, i.e. a full sun light condition and 50% interception. Dry matter yield of top and root and their seasonal changes, the number of tillers or branches per plant and finally competative effects of mixtures were evaluated by estimating the expected yield, relative yield totals and compensation index. The results are summarized as follows: 1. Maitland showed a significant decrease in dry matter yield in shade condition, but the number of branches of Maitland was higher than those of Deben. 2. Maitland showed higher dry matter yield than Deben during the mid-summer period, while $S_{23}$, showed higher dry matter yield than $S_{26}$ during early season. 3. Mixtures of $S_{23}$ and Maitland, and $S_{26}$ and Deben gave better response to grasses by increasing the number of tillers in shade condition. 4. Combinations of Lotus corniculatus cv. Maitland and Dactylis glomerata cv. $S_{26}$ and Trifolium pratense cv. Deben and Dactylis glomerata cv. $S_{26}$ gave higher relative yield totals and higher compensation index, which envisages that the pasture establishment rates can be enhanced when those mixtures were sown by the oversowing method in the upland soil where phosphate level is very low and infertile in general.n general.

The objective of the study was to determine the effects of animal related factors on bruising in slaughter cattle, creatine kinase (CK) and beef quality. Three hundred and twenty one cattle from three breeds (108 Bonsmara, 130 Beefmaster and 83 Brahman) were used in this study. The animals were grouped as follows: Group 1 (16 months old), Group 2 (18 months old) and Group 3 (24 months old). At exsanguinations, blood samples for CK determination were collected using disposable vacutainer tubes. Muscularis longissimus thoracis et lumborum (LTL) was collected 24 h after slaughter to determine the colour ($L^*$, $a^*$, and $b^*$) and ultimate pH ($pH_u$) of beef. Breed, sex and age had significant effects (p<0.05) on bruising score, CK levels and beef quality. Bonsmara breed had the highest (80%) bruising score percentage, CK ($705.3{\pm}80.57U/L$) and $pH_u$ ($6.3{\pm}0.05$) values while the Bonsmara had the highest $L^*$ ($24.8{\pm}0.78$) $a^*$ ($17.5{\pm}0.53$) and $b^*$ ($12.8{\pm}0.53$) values. Higher CK levels were also observed in winter compared to summer, spring and autumn respectively. Therefore, animal factors (sex, breed and animal age at slaughter) contribute to the development of bruises and have an effect on the levels of CK and meat quality. It was also concluded that there is no significant relationship between meat parameters (L,* $a^*$, and $b^*$) and CK levels.

Objective: The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of supplementing pasture-finished steers with corn silage on the expression level of the calpain system proteins and beef tenderization. Methods: Thirty Braford steers grazing on summer pasture were used for the study. For 120 days fifteen animals were supplemented with corn silage at 1% of body weight per head per day (Suppl) whereas the remaining 15 steers only received pasture (Contr). Carcass and meat traits were evaluated and compared between groups. Gene expression and activities of proteases (calpain 1 and calpain 2) and inhibitor (calpastatin) were measured using real-time polymerase chain reaction and casein zymography. Results: Carcass and meat traits were significantly different between feeding systems. Supplemented steers showed higher hot carcass weight (p<0.01), fat content (p = 0.02), and Warner-Bratzler shear force (p = 0.03). Furthermore, the control group showed higher protease:inhibitor ratios, at mRNA (p = 0.01) and protein levels (p<0.10). Warner-Bratzler shear force and mRNA calpains:calpastatin ratio were associated in both feeding systems (p<0.01). Conclusion: Based on the results obtained in the study, beef tenderness differences among finishing strategies could be modulated through differential expression of the calpain system proteins.
