dc.description.abstractContrary to general expectations, four improvement practices used in combination increased yearlong gain per steer as much as the sum of the practices used alone. The improvement practices studied were moderate grazing, additional winter cake, late-summer cake, and stilbestrol. The basic practice was heavy grazing. The 100% efficiency of gain obtained with the combined practices indicates that an improvement practice should produce about the same increase in gain regardless of the number of other improvement practices used on a ranch or in an experiment./Cuatro diferentes estudios anteriores en la estación experimental de Planicias de Sur, Woodward, Oklahoma, E.U.A., mostraron cuatro diferentes prácticas que aumentan las ganancias de novillos en pastoreo. Estas son: 1) Pastoreo con carga de 8 acres por novilla contra 6 acres por novilla. 2) Suplementación durante el invierno con harinolina (42% proteína) dando 3 libras por novillo diario en comparación con 1.5 libras por novillo diario. 3) Suplementación de harinolina durante el verano cuando los zacates están secos, cantidad 1 libra por novillo diario. 4) Implantación de 12 mgs. de estilbestrol durante los meses de Noviembre y Mayo. Se encontró en este estudio que las prácticas son aditivas. La aplicación de las cuatro prácticas combinadas aumentaron las ganancis de peso de 92 libras por res que fué igual a la suma de los aumentos por las prácticas aplicadas por separado.
