[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1394475, member: 25884"] I have been to alot of dairy meetings where there is alot of talk about TDN and all. I am no expert, but I know that there isn't a dairy farmer around that will feed whole corn in a ration anymore. I cannot say that it is only a 15% increase but to hear them talk I would think that it is alot more. I also feed Crimped oats, not whole oats in the rations. Breaking up the outer hull and fiber will make it more assimulated by animals gut tract. I am not a nutritionist but will ask at the feed mill this week when I go in. Susan has the schooling, learning, and experience to give me some answers that I am now quite curious about. [/QUOTE]
