A week or two before
harvesting field corn, hog
farmers should beware. Pink
mold may be growing under
the husks, producing myco-
toxins that are harmful when
consumed by swine.
"Farmers can expect to
find pink mold in any field,"
says Professor R.B. Hunter,
Department of Crop Science,
University of Guelph. "But
presence of the mold doesn't
necessarily mean the toxins
are there. Certain weather
conditions make mold growth
produce the troublesome tox-
ins."
High humidity and heavy
rainfall, especially in August
and September, encourage
mold growth and mycotoxin
production. Corn borer and
bird damage make the ears
susceptible to infection.
Mycotoxins are dangerous
to swine because one type,
zearalenone, causes repro-
ductive problems. Another
toxin can cause feed refusal,
vomiting, and weight loss.
"Because the mold is
harder to detect after corn
has been handled, hog far-
mers should look for white or
pink powdery mold on the
surface of the kernels before
harvesting," says Prof. Hun-
ter. "Open 100 ears at
random. If more than four
ears have mold growth,
collect samples for laboratory
analysis.
Although weather is the
key factor in causing pink
mold, research supported by
the Ontario Ministry of Agri-
culture and Food indicates
that storage and production
practices also contribute to
the spread of the mold.
Prof. Hunter says that
excessive levels of nitrogen,
high plant densities, late
plantings, and late harvest-
ing of early-maturing var-
ieties contribute to the in-
cidence of mold.
