Feeding wheat

[Lazyacre]

I have a neighbor who has some 2 year old wheat seed. The weevils have been in it and all that is left is hulls and the white powder that looks like flour. Is there any benefit or danger to feeding this to momma cows? All it will cost nothing but I realize you get what you pay for!

I don't know if it will hurt but I wouldn't feed it. I know that doesn't answer your question. Safe bet is to not.

I'm with Scotty! All it would provide would be a little bulk. We had a lot of it when we bought this farm. The wild turkeys wouldn't even it. We just disked it in to add a little tilth to the soil.

If concerned about feeding it, take a sample of the wheat to your local ag specialist and ask for test/opinion.

Take care.
