Abstract
Depressed feed intake is the major nutritional problem in newly received feeder cattle. This article draws on findings from receiving experiments to offer recommendations on common matters of debate. These include the initial use of feed versus water; appropriate types of feed; the dietary roles of concentrate, protein, and other nutrients; the use of medication; and strategies for lactic acid adaptation and prevention of acidosis.
