Understanding the Farm Bill






If “things aren’t working quite right,” says Lon Whitlow, a professor of animal science and Extension dairy specialist at North Carolina State University, and a dairy producer finds his cows are off their feed, susceptible to illness or just not performing…it may be time to check the feed for mycotoxins.

Whitlow, an expert on Dairy cattle nutrition and feeding management says there’s been a lot of advancement in the area of mycotoxins, poisons produced by molds. “It appears to me,” he says, “that a lot of that advancement is coming on the agronomic side, particularly with genetics, so that the plant resists the disease in the field, and then the animal feeders don’t have to deal with these high levels in the grain or forage.”
