An American rancher in Chihuahua, W. D. Corbin, unveils a method to remove cactus thorns by applying sulfate salts to shredded cactus leaves in a silo, producing ensilage comparable to grass or corn fodder. He estimates costs at one quarter of US corn ensilage and envisions shipping thornless cactus feed to dairy regions from Texas to California.
