y ; <br /> ill <br /> TECHNICA <br /> RESEARCH SERVICES <br /> • <br /> May 2, 1989 <br /> Mr. George Tyion <br /> Xylah <br /> 505 Science br., Suite b <br /> Hadiaon, WI 53/11 '1 <br /> Dear Hr: Tyson, <br /> I appreciatid your efforts in meeting with us on Sunday, April $.s 1989, <br /> to explore potential designs for your unique product. A large potential <br /> exists for processing cotton by-products, specifically cotton burrs in the <br /> northern cotton growing areas of Texas. This product is removed from the <br /> field and deposited at the gin where it must be removed for feeding or <br /> disposal. Collection in the field and transportation to a central point <br /> has already been accomplished with this product. However, we would be <br /> willing to explore' the potential feeding value of any roughage product that <br /> you were capable of producing not just limited to the cotton burrs. Bos <br /> Technics Research Services can provide commercial feedyard application of <br /> a product or idea faith the precision that is better than smaller animal <br /> Studies provided at the university level. <br /> In the evaluation of g product for a growing beef animal, I would <br /> suggest the possible following design of a trial. The product would be <br /> included in a diet at 0, 25, 50 and 75% of the diet. Each of these treat- <br /> ments should be replicated four times so we would have a four by four <br /> study of Sixteen pens. A study of this design would require approximately <br /> 700 head of cattle. The final decision on •the inclusion amounts in a <br /> diet would be dependant upon product availability and the marketing object- <br /> ives of the product: <br /> Enclosed you Will find an implant research report previously released <br /> for publishing from 1985 that will give you some idea of the services <br /> provided by Bog Technica. <br /> George, if we can be of additional service relative to answering <br /> questions concerning the application of your processing methods, please <br /> Irihr <br /> CORPORATE RESEARCH OFFICE • 2000 RIDGEVIEW ROAD • SAUNA, KANSAS 67401 <br /> Research Administrator • Dr.Walter C.Koers • (913)825-1358 <br /> CORPORATE FINANCIAL OFFICE • P.O.
