Cornstalk Pasture As Roughage For Cattle
William Zmolek of Town State College says cornstalk pasture can supply about half the roughage needs for beef cattle when properly supplemented. Mature beef cows yearlings and older steers wintered for limited gain use stalks best, with 10 pounds legume hay minerals and few concentrates yielding satisfactory results. Snow cover and trampling spoilage are noted disadvantages.
