Bruce Farm Report
CRITICAL TIME FOR FEEDING
A lot of poor hay is now being
fed and in view of the fact that
-grain and protein supplements
are coming, down in price, this
might , be a good time to look at
the total ration being fed to Dairy,
Beef and Sheep. Results of feed
samples sent in to the th4versity
of Guelph, varied greatly as
usual.
Some very glow protein in hay
was 'noted. Some samples under
10% protein and no 1st cut hay
over 12% protein. This means,
that dairy cattle should be getting'
about 17 - 18% protein in the grain
ration with this type of hay.
Second cut hay on the other handy
was quite high as usual, with the
highest recorded .protein being
19.8%.
With this type of hay a 14%
protein in the grain ration is all
that is. required.
The highest haylage was about
21% and the lowest about 8%.
Haylage this year was very very
variable in, protein content.
Corn silage was steady as us-
ual at about 8.5 - 9.0% protein.
Further information on testing •
samples and composing feeding
rations is available from this
office — telephone 881-3301.
