Frost damage raises questions on corn recovery and cattle feed safety
Agriculture writer reports from Brandon and University of Manitoba experts. Frost affects corn viability with less than half leaf damage still growing, while two thirds or more frozen leaves likely fail. Frozen forage can be dangerous to livestock, especially green oats and flax, with hydrocyanic acid risk diminishing over time. Recommendations include varied feeds, testing at the Winnipeg Feed Testing Laboratory, shelterbelt planning, and ordering trees to prevent wind erosion.
