Soy Beans Superior as Protein Supplement for Cows
Iowa State researchers report cracked soy beans equal or slightly superior to linseed oilmeal as a protein supplement for dairy cows. Trials show soy beans do not cause scours, with a basal ration of corn silage, alfalfa hay, cracked corn and oats. Soy bean oilmeal matches linseed oilmeal in value, relative prices will guide choices. Corn silage and corn-bean silage offer similar milk and butterfat yields, with a 5.69 percent per acre gain when grown together, though seed costs offset the gain.
