Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the use of soft corn in feeding beef cattle, a problem that has significantly impacted farmers, especially in years with unfavorable weather conditions affecting corn maturity. The author presents six experiments conducted at the University of Illinois, offering valu…able insights into the effectiveness of various methods for utilizing soft corn, including shocking, pasturing, and ensiling. The results challenge previous assumptions, demonstrating that well-preserved soft corn has comparable nutritional value to mature corn, and that ensiling is a highly effective method for preserving and utilizing this valuable feedstuff. This book provides practical guidance for farmers seeking to optimize their livestock feeding strategies, particularly during challenging growing seasons. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
