The Handbook of Feedstuffs

Rudolph Seiden and R. H. Pfander. Springer Publishing Company, Inc., New York, 1957

Department of Dairy Science, University of Illinois, Urbana

ABSTRACT

This book is a very abbreviated encyclopedia covering the grains, the minerals, and the plant and animal by-product feeds. In addition, brief botanical descriptions of most of the plants which are fed in the United States are provided, and the pests and diseases affecting them are mentioned along with suggested control measures.

Pharmaceuticals and feed additives are listed and their use briefly described. Terms commonly used in feeding are defined very simply. Considering the tremendously broad subject matter areas encompassed in the book's subtitle. Production, Formulation and Medication of Feedstuffs, it is easy to comprehend the somewhat inadequate explanation found in the text.

This book can serve as a reference for workers in the feedstuffs industry and possibly for others concerned in the general area of feeding.
