Ergot In Rye Spurs Officials' Caution
Ergot in rye is far more abundant this year, warn plant pathologists at Lowst State College. Livestock poisoning is possible if large amounts of ergot contaminated rye are fed. Ergot forms black protrusions on the grain head, replacing normal kernels. Many ergotty kernels can be removed by running rye through a tanning mill. rye can be fed whole or ground with greens, sorghum, or silage to reduce risk.
