Winter Roughage Suffices for Wintering Beef Cows
A Montana Agricultural Experiment Station report reviews two winter trials at Havre with 20 grade Hereford cows fed about 11 pounds alfalfa and 2 pounds wheat daily for 109 days. Cows started strong at 1,143 pounds, later calved with moderate weight loss. Oat hay and rye hay prove efficient roughages, with alfalfa, sweet clover, and blue joint similar in value. One pound cottonseed cake can replace two pounds grain if home-grown grains are available.
