Corn Stover Cannot Replace Alfalfa Even With Minerals
Iowa State College Dairy Husbandry experts say corn stover and other substitutes cannot replace alfalfa hay, even with added minerals like bone meal and calcium carbonate. Alfalfa provides high protein alongside calcium. substitutes are low in protein, so nutrition may suffer without alfalfa or soybeans. Experts advise maintaining mineral supplements and balancing rations with legumes and silage, plus a diverse grain mix to meet protein targets.
