Cottonseed Cake Best for Calves Says Agricultural Expert
E M Brouse reports at the Valentine substation that one pound of cottonseed cake daily per calf yielded the best growth on prairie hay through winter. Calves on this ration gained 157 pounds in 150 days, while others on prairie hay alone lost weight. Tests show calves stay in good growing condition early to maximize future net profit for 1000 pound steer markets.
