Iowa Farmers Told Corn Based Dairy Rations Can Boost Profit
Extension specialist Burt Oderkirk in Waterloo and John McEvvard of Iowa State College report that under current corn abundance and low price, a dairy ration of ground corn and oats with roughages may be most economical. They note corn feeds most dairy rations and suggest substituting legumes for some roughages while omitting bran, aiming to improve profit through efficient feeding and better utilization of low-value corn and oats.
