Summary:An abstract of a study by Rosenthal et al determining the effects of solvent- or mechanically extracted Brassica carinata meal on performance of cows is presented. Protein supplementation had no effect on T4, but T3 and T4 were less (P < 0.04) at d 28 and d 56 among cows fed ground cornstalks compared to cows fed long-stem cornstalks. Apparently, solvent- but not mechanically extracted carinata meal may be useful as a source of supplemental protein to cows.
