Cottonseed Feed Dangers for Hogs Reported by Experiments
Reports from state experiment stations warn that cottonseed raw, boiled, or roasted cannot be fed safely to hogs and often kills within six weeks. Cottonseed meal shows poisonous effects even in small amounts, though short feeding may boost gains before symptoms appear. Crushed cottonseed with other feeds may work if not moldy, and with milk it may be fed to pigs under certain weights, but risk remains after three to four weeks.
