Alaskan Short Moss Proposed as Poultry Feed
Alaska researchers led by Professor Gasser at the Fairbanks agricultural college and school of mines announce short tundra moss as a top chicken feed. The perennial moss cures on the ground like hay and, when moistened, regains succulency suitable for green feed and grain ration support, aiding poultry destined for market. Some mining firms already run poultry yards to reduce egg and chicken costs amid transportation barriers. An estimate from the Boyce Thompson Institute notes humans use about two tenths of one percent of plant solar energy for food.
