Sudan Grass Good Cow Food Promises Better Dairy Output
Experiments by J G Gartner of Glenroy South Australia show Sudan grass yields nearly 8 cows per acre and increases milk and cream production compared with barley feeds. He notes nitrogen from air makes it a solid, natural feed while water-rich winter plants are too soft. He recalls sowing rye corn to secure fibrous, hardy feed for winter and estimates ensilage yields up to three tons per acre in unused areas, with cows fed on baled hay balancing the ration.
