Using a 2\u00a0\u00d7\u00a02 factorial arrangement of breed and diet, cows pregnant by artificial insemination (n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a034) of two breeds (cross\u2010bred L<\/jats:styled-content>imousin, n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a019 and pure\u2010bred L<\/jats:styled-content>uing, n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a015) were fed diets ad\u00a0libitum<\/jats:italic> which consisted of either (g\/kg dry matter) barley straw (664) and grass silage (325; GS<\/jats:styled-content>) or barley straw (783) and brewers grains (206, BG<\/jats:styled-content>) and offered as total mixed rations. From gestation day (GD<\/jats:styled-content>) 168 until 266, individual daily feed intakes were recorded and cow body weight (BW<\/jats:styled-content>) and body condition score (BCS<\/jats:styled-content>) measured weekly. Calving date, calf sex, birth and weaning BW<\/jats:styled-content>, and calf age at weaning were also recorded. Between GD<\/jats:styled-content> 168 and 266, cross\u2010bred Limousin cows gained more weight than Luing cows (p\u00a0<\u00a00.05) and cows offered BG<\/jats:styled-content> gained more weight than cows offered GS<\/jats:styled-content> (p\u00a0<\u00a00.001). Luing cows lost more BCS<\/jats:styled-content> than cross\u2010bred L<\/jats:styled-content>imousin cows (p\u00a0<\u00a00.05), but diet did not affect BCS<\/jats:styled-content>. There were no differences in dry matter intake as a result of breed or diet. Calf birth BW<\/jats:styled-content>, however, was greater for cows fed BG<\/jats:styled-content> than GS<\/jats:styled-content> (44 vs. 38\u00a0kg, SEM<\/jats:styled-content> 1.0, p\u00a0<\u00a00.001) with no difference between breeds. At weaning, calves born to BG<\/jats:styled-content>\u2010fed cows were heavier than those born to GS<\/jats:styled-content>\u2010fed cows (330 vs. 286\u00a0kg, SEM<\/jats:styled-content> 9.3, p\u00a0<\u00a00.01). In conclusion, replacement of grass silage with brewers grains improved the performance of beef cows and increased calf birth and weaning BW<\/jats:styled-content>. Further analysis indicated that the superior performance of cows offered the BG<\/jats:styled-content> diet was most likely due to increases in protein supply which may have improved both energy and protein supply to the foetus.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/jpn.12410","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,11,28]],"date-time":"2015-11-28T07:56:42Z","timestamp":1448697402000},"page":"629-636","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["The effects on cow performance and calf birth and weaning weight of replacing grass silage with brewers grains in a barley straw diet offered to pregnant beef cows of two different breeds"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"100","author":[{"given":"J.
