    (Fakulti Agroteknologi dan Sains Makanan, 2005-08) Madzlan, Mohd Salleh
    A study was conducted to determine the performance of beef cattle in oil palm plantation in three cattle zoning areas in Terengganu. Growth performance, conditioned age and management advantages of practices and nutrition were assessed. One hundred and ten heads of cattle of various age and sex were identified in each of the three selected farms and were allowed to graze freely under a controlled rotational grazing. Data on the initial and quarterly body weights were taken throughout the twelve months of the year of 2003. Fifteen random samples of the undergrowths using 1 m x 1 m quadrant were taken from each paddock for proximate composition of the feed.
