Chemists found no prussic acid in many stalk samples, yet fields may still be toxic. The recommended test is to introduce a few inferior animals first. if unharmed, cane is probably safe. Gradually increase grazing time. Historically, cane cut for fodder or siloed and dried is less apt to contain the acid.
