On Corn Silage
t^-v-
Feedmg corn silage as the only
forage for dairy cattle can result
in serious nutiitional and diges
tive problems, an Extension
veterinarian at Pennsylvania
State University declared at a
lecent meeting at Cornell Uni

by the rumen and abnormal de
velopment of the abomasum,” he
pointed out
