Alfalfa vs Bran for Wisconsin Dairy Cows
D. Graber of the Wisconsin College of Agriculture says hay from an acre of alfalfa provides as much food value for dairy cows as three tons of bran. Wisconsin acreage shows a steady rise from 150,000 in 1923 to about 400,000 for 1925. High lime and protein make alfalfa hay a valuable feed, reducing need for expensive concentrates. Tests show substituting alfalfa for bran can raise milk slightly.
