[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 1769865, member: 968"] Wow - I googled trying to find the article "Farm and Dairy". I was amazed at all the new research proving WSC is better. "Feeding [B]whole[/B] [B]corn[/B] is a viable option for cattle feeders. Dry processing (cracking, rolling) has only small effects on starch digestion. For long-fed calves (greater than 170 days), feeding [B]whole[/B] [B]corn[/B] may result in better gains and efficiencies than [B]feeding[/B] dry [B]processed[/B] [B]corn[/B]."
