Dairy Cows Benefit From Grain On Pasture
Ohio station expert A E Perkins states that small grain amounts on pasture keep dairy cows in good condition through the season. Heavy producers need grain as pasture quality declines, with a suggested mix of ground corn oats wheat bran and a high protein supplement. One pound of this mix per four to five pounds of milk produced is advised, increasing as pasture deteriorates.
