Cottonseed Meal Studies

III. Heavy Feeding of Cottonseed Meal to Dairy Cattle during Reproduction and Lactation^*

Department of Dairy Husbandry, Michigan State College, East Lansing

ABSTRACT

The results of this investigation lend further support to the theory that cottonseed meal injury in dairy cattle is due to the lack of a factor or factors carried by good quality hay.

Liberal feeding of cottonseed meal to dairy cattle from three months to four years of age along with ample hay of high quality and corn silage had no apparent effect on health, reproduction or lactation.

Liberal feeding of cottonseed meal to lactating cows did not increase susceptibility to udder infection.
