Grain and forage advice for dairy cows from Iowa State College
Iowa State College dairy experts advise feeding grain to cows producing 26 pounds of milk or more on pasture. If using corn, ration is 6 pounds corn per pound of milk with 1 pound grain per 4 to 6 pounds of milk. oats mix 3 pounds oats 8 pounds corn and 1 pound cottonseed meal. Linseed meal is discouraged. cottonseed meal reduces laxative effects. Ration suited for next two months, then adjust as grass dries and more grain is needed.
