Both high moisture ear com, and shelled corn have been suc cessfully fed to dairy on many cessfully fed to dairy cows on ma- 1 ny farms On some farms, how ever, problems have been en countered. In some cases the en tire ration (forage plus concentr ate) has not been pioperly balan ced from the stand point of pro tein, minerals, and vitamins. Sometimes high moisture com has been fed at levels too high to allow for sufficient forage or rou ghage intake. This may result in a high incidence of digestive up sets and metabolic disorders, such as, ketosis, milk fat depres sion, and founder. In other cases, costly mistakes have been made in sizing silo storage to practical feeding out rates There has been a tendency -to ensile more than can be fed under the existing - herd conditions 731 726 724 723 672 721 721 718 - 717- 676 671 Forage Analysis and Feed Programming 715 Individual help with feeding programs may be obtained through use of the Penn State Forage testing seivice. Informa tion provided upon request in cludes minimum crude protein levels for concentrate mixtures,* rates of grain feeding, mineral and vitamin recommendations, formulas based on feed supplies and prices, as well as feeding suggestions for diy cows, fresh cows, heifers and calves. Any existing health and reproductive problems are taken into consid eration in feed programming. Tests available on forages and concentrates include moisture, crude protein, crude fiber, com plete mineral analysis, nitrates and urea. Estimated TDN and ENE values are computed using established relationships. For age testing, supplies and infor mation are available through, County Agricultural Extension offices and many D.H.I.A.

Limit urea to 10% 15% of the grain mix ture as fed to dairy cows largely for palatability reasons 3. Do not use urea in mixtures contain ing law soybeans oi inadequately hbat-ti sated soybean products. 4.
