Replace part of regenerative rice silage feed with whole cottonseed enhances growth performance and nutrient digestibility via regulating gH/IGF axis in beef cattle

This work was designed to assess the impacts of whole cottonseed (WCs) on growth performance, nutrient digestion, GH /IGF-1 axis, and meat quality in beef cattle. Twenty-four healthy male simmental cattle (18 months old and 370.5 ± 12.5 kg) were arbitrarily classified into two groups (n=12 per group...
