Moldy hay a feed concern for cattle

The wet conditions of last year and the start of this year have contributed to not only mold concerns in feed grains but also in hay. Cow-calf and stocker cattle nutritionist Cathy Bandyk with Quality Liquid Feeds in Wisconsin tells Brownfield it’s something beef cattle producers need to try and manage. Only a few of the thousands of molds that develop can produce mycotoxins, poisons that can cause health problems, and in some cases, cattle death.
