Spring dairy feed gains from protein cut in spring
Dairymen with cows on spring pasture can save money by reducing grain protein from 22 percent to 10 percent. Spring grasses are high in water and minerals but low in carbohydrates, so a 10 percent protein mix suits wheat oats clover and young Sudan. Some grasses need higher protein supplements, while Bermuda and Rhodes grass require 14 percent.
