Compudose® vs Ralgro®/Synovex-S® or Synovex-S®/Synovex-S® Reimplant programs for finishing yearling steers

Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports, Dec 1987

Three field trials were conducted with finishing yearling steers to compare the performance of cattle receiving Compudose® or Ralgro®/Synovex-S® and Synovex-S®/Synovex-S® reimplant combinations. No differences were found between Compudose and the reimplant programs in cattle daily gain, feed efficiency, or cost of gain. Compudose retention was 97.5% in the 1317 head implanted. Synovex-S implant site abscess rate ranged from 5.7 to 15.4%.
