    Corn cob is an appendage left over after harvesting corn kernels, and it is generally used as firewood for cooking in the vast rural areas of our country. Both, corn cobs after we harvest corn kernels if well preserved, after crushing and wheat bran.

    and corn flour together can be used as feed for cattle and sheep.

    The corn cob itself contains a certain amount of crude fiber.

    Crude protein, corn cob can be fed to cattle after crushing, not only corn cob, corn stalks can be crushed and fed to cattle.

    <> corn cob can not only be fed to cattle, but can also be used to satisfy hunger in famine years. In 1961, when I was six years old, I learned that the collective canteen used crushed corn cobs to make dried cakes for people to eat, and the corn cobs were crushed and saccharin was added.

    At that time, I only gave adults to eat, not to our children, and I took advantage of the adults' inattention, stole a piece and put it in my mouth, and it was still very sweet, but I couldn't swallow the sweetness after chewing it.

    At that time, people ate corn cobs but did not eat straw, indicating that the nutrients in corn cobs were higher than those of straw.

    Green fodder. There is no problem with the crushing of the straw along with the corn cobs, because it itself has not yet reached the level of oldness and hardness, and the livestock can chew and digest it. In addition, the crushed straw feed also needs to be fed after fermentation, which greatly avoids and softens the hard matter in the corn cob.

    When the corn is harvested in autumn, many growers hand over the crushed corn stalks to the harvester free of charge, and the harvester sells the crushed stalks to the feedlot as forage to make a profit. And for corn growers, the corn harvest is free, and everyone is happy.

    Corn cobs can be used as fodder to feed cattle, simple dry corn cob crushing to feed cattle is not good, difficult to digest and cattle do not like to eat. Green storage feed is another matter.

    It is okay to feed cattle after the corn cob is crushed, but it cannot be fed alone, it should be fed with other feeds, and soaked in warm water and fed with hay or silage. After the autumn harvest corn is threshed, every household has a large number of corn cobs, which were mainly used as fuel in the past, and some are crushed with corn cobs as edible fungus cultivation materials, which is economical.

    Well, some are now used to produce furfural.

    Corn cob is rich in xylitol, which is refined into a drug that is beneficial to diabetics, and can also be used as a sweetener, nutritional supplement, auxiliary agent, etc. Corn cob processing can be made into pharmaceutical intermediates "bran plugs", which are used in the manufacture of rubber, plastics, synthetic fibers, coatings, chemical reagents and other industries. However, whether it is refining xylitol components or manufacturing "bran plugs", it is a "big project" that ordinary people can't do.

    It is rich in phosphorus, potassium and other trace elements, used to feed cattle can make cattle grow fat quickly, I don't think it's a waste.

    Summary. Corn on the cob crushed to feed the cow is good pro. It can ensure that the nutrition of the cattle is more comprehensive.

    Hello. Corn on the cob crushed to feed the cow is good pro. It can ensure that the nutrition of the cattle is more comprehensive.

    But don't eat too much. Because it will swell the stomach.

    Hello dear<>

    Corn cob crushed feeding cattle is a viable way to feed because it contains a high nutritional value and can provide the nutrients that the herd needs, such as protein, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals, etc. The advantage of corn cob crushing feeding is that it can provide the nutrients needed by the herd more efficiently, and it can effectively reduce the food waste of the herd, which can save costs. However, there are some drawbacks, such as corn cob crushing feeding, which can lead to excessive carbohydrate intake in the herd, which can lead to obesity and metabolic disorders.

    In addition, corn cob crushing feeding can also cause the herd to consume too much sugar, which can lead to dental disease in the herd. Therefore, corn cob crushing feeding has its advantages and disadvantages of violently disturbing the land, and it should be decided whether to adopt this feeding method according to the specific situation of the herd.

    In short, there are good and bad.

    You can look at it according to your choice.

    Is it okay to wrap the feed and feed it together?

    Yes pro.

    Corn cobs feed cattle. Corn cob is mainly composed of cellulose, hemicellulose and other complex polysaccharides, so it is necessary to choose feed enzyme preparations based on cellulase, and add kilograms of feed enzyme per ton of corn cob. In addition, 2.5 kg of table salt is added per tonne of corn cob.

    In order to make the feed enzyme and corn cob mixed evenly, generally use corn and bran as premix (20 kg of corn and 30 kg of bran per ton of corn cob) for small-scale mixing, and then add to the corn cob after mixing evenly, at the same time, corn and bran are also necessary sugar carriers for fermentation.

    Choose high-quality corn cobs to remove sand impurities. The corn cob is crushed with a pulverizer to be suitable for fermentation and digestion and absorption. The crushed corn cob should be soaked to ensure the wetness of the corn cob.

    The humidity of the corn cob after treatment should be 65% 70%, that is, it is advisable to use your hands to hold the liquid between your fingers but not dripping.

    If the humidity is insufficient, you can add an appropriate amount of water, and if the humidity is too high, you can dry the corn cob properly or add some crushed dry material.

    Not good, it will also cause secondary fermentation, try to ferment silage, use it slowly, only open a corner when taking the material, and seal it again immediately after taking the material, so that it can be stored for a longer time. The secondary fermentation of silage refers to the mold phenomenon caused by the aeration of the silage due to the increase in the temperature in the cellar after the silage is opened and fed. Better quality silage is susceptible to secondary fermentation.

    After secondary fermentation, 10-24% of the sugar content of the silage can be lost. If there is a large amount of mold activity and mildew or nitrite is produced, it will cause a certain degree of harm after feeding cattle and sheep. The main methods to prevent the secondary fermentation of silage are:

    The silage raw material should not be cut too long, 1-2 cm for corn stalks, 2-4 cm for vines such as sweet potato seedlings; The moisture content should be 65-70%, the density should be high, and the weight per cubic meter should not be less than 700 kg; The raw materials should not be over-dried, and they should be harvested in a timely manner to prevent the corn stalks from being damaged by frost. The secondary fermentation starts after the silage comes into contact with the air after opening, so the size of the opening should be determined according to the number of cattle and sheep raised and the amount of feed intake, and the opening should be as small as possible. After each removal of the silage, cover the surface with plastic film to make it non-aerating.

    If the silage that has been fermented twice and cannot be eaten for a while, the feed that has been heated in the upper layer should be packed into a sealed plastic bag and fed as soon as possible. The lower layer of silage is sprayed with propionic acid in a dosage of liters per square meter, and the surface is covered with a plastic film, which can effectively stop the secondary fermentation of silage.

    Hello. The answers to your questions are as follows.

    After cattle eat a large amount of corn stalks and corn leaves, it will cause poisoning, light diarrhea, heavy dehydration, weakness in walking, blood in the stool, and even death.

    Feed cattle with corn stalks and corn leaves, the feeding amount should not exceed 30% of the total amount of feeding, and should be fed with other feeds, or after fermentation and silage, so as to effectively avoid poisoning and enhance its palatability.

    Straw is a low-quality roughage. If the cattle are simply fed with untreated straw, the cattle will not grow meat and will even lose fat slowly. If the ammoniated straw is fed, it will exceed the maintenance needs of the cattle.

    In other words, cattle not only no longer lose fat, but also grow meat, but the rate of weight gain is very slow. Experiments conducted by the Ministry of Agriculture and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations in Zhoukou, Henan Province, have shown that cattle gain only kilograms or less per day when they are fed ammoniated straw alone.

    However, if 1 kg of cottonseed cake is fed per day in addition to the ammoniated straw, the daily weight gain will rise to kilograms; Feeding 2 kg of cottonseed cake is more than one kilogram per day; 3 kg of cottonseed cake, more than one kilogram of weight gain per day. From this point of view, it is very important to feed cattle with straw. Proper supplemental feeding should follow the following principles.

    1.Supplemental feeding should be based on protein rather than energy. Cakes are rich in protein and are ideal supplementary feeds; Cereals (such as corn) are energy feeds that are not as effective as cottonseed cake and are relatively high, so they should not be used as a preferred supplemental concentrate.

    2.Try to supplement the cotton with cheap cake meal. Seed cake and rapeseed cake contain a certain toxin, and feeding pigs and chickens is strictly restricted, while ruminants such as cattle and sheep have a greater tolerance. The use of cottonseed cake and rapeseed cake for supplementary feeding can reduce costs.

    3.The amount of concentrate should be based on the price of forage, feed and cattle. If the concentrate is relatively cheap and the price of cattle is high, you can feed more; On the contrary, if the concentrate is expensive and the price of cattle is low, feed less.

    In general, the daily feeding of concentrate should not exceed 2-3 kg per cow, otherwise it is not economical. However, during the rapid fattening period before the beef cattle are slaughtered, the concentrate can be a little more. Ploughing cattle and "hanger" cattle do not need to use too high concentrate.

    After the corn stalk is crushed, of course, it can be fed to the cattle, if there is a condition to treat it with a professional starter culture, such as using Nongshengle straw starter culture. After fermentation, not only the nutrient content of the straw is improved, but also the palatability is better.

    Nongshengle Straw Starter CultureFermented straw feed is to enzymatically hydrolyze the xylan chain and lignin polymer ester chain in the straw through the growth and reproduction of effective microbial flora, so as to promote the softening of the straw, the volume expansion, and the conversion of thumb cellulose into sugar. Continuous heavy fermentation converts sugars into lactic acid and volatile fatty acids, so that the pH value is approaching, inhibits the reproduction of harmful bacteria such as spoilage bacteria, and achieves the purpose of long-term storage of straw preservation. Among them, the starch, protein, cellulose and other organic matter contained in it are degraded into monosaccharides, disaccharides, amino acids and trace elements, etc., so that the feed becomes soft, fragrant and more palatable.

    The crude fiber that is not easy to be digested and absorbed by animals is converted into nutrients that can be absorbed and utilized by animals, and the digestion and absorption utilization rate of crude fiber by animals is improved.

    <> benefits: The crushed corn cob can improve the palatability of the feed, improve the utilization rate of the feed and balance feed, enhance the disease resistance of livestock, promote digestion and absorption, and reduce the cost of breeding. Cons:

    The corn cob is not crushed and the reeds are fed directly, the palatability is relatively poor, and the stems and leaves of some forage straws in the hole are easy to separate, which will make the livestock picky eaters and lose weight, which will cause economic losses.
