Protein quality and balanced rations for farm animals
Prof F B Morrison Cornell outlines how protein quality matters as much as quantity in animal feeds. Meat milk and egg proteins provide complete amino acids, cereals lag in efficiency, soybeans and peanuts give high quality protein, and balanced blends including linseed and cottonseed meals improve cattle diets. Swine poultry need extra protein sources due to limited roughage digestion. Brood mares and growing colts require ample, proper proteins for growth and work.

Largest yields when fertilizer is two to three inches from seed and at same or slightly lower depth. Cultivate deeply early, but avoid roots later. Deep late cultivation harms. Begin Bordeaux mixture spray at 6 to 8 inches height, weekly to ten days. Twenty years of tests support spraying as beneficial.
