Soybeans Desirable
Feed for Lambs Say
Extension Workers
-$
Quality of Carcass Is Not
Affected as in Case
of Swine
-*
Although soybeans will produce
“soft pork" if fed to fattening hogs,
they are a desirable feed for lambs
and will not affect the quality of the
carcass, reports Dr. John E. Poster,
associate professor of the State Col
lege Animal Husbandry Department.
“In fact,” he said, “we have found
in our experimental work on the
State College farm that ewes and
lambs gain faster on soybean pasture
than on any other kind."
With soybean production up near
ly 10 times what it was 10 years ago,
both farmers and scientists are look
ing for new and profitable uses for I
this soil-improving crop.
' We have fed up to three-fourths
of a pound of soybeans per day to
sheep with good results,” Dr. Poster
stated. "Soybean oil meal is an excel
lent protein supplement for sheep,
cattle, and even swine. It is the whole
beans fed to hogs after they reach
75 to 100 pounds in weight that pro
duces ‘soft and oily pork' which is un
desirable.”
Dr. Foster cited results of experi
ments conducted by the U. S. De
partment of Agriculture at the Agri
cultural Research Center, Beltsville,
Md., to support the investigations of
the State College Experiment Station.
Three lots of lambs were fed at
Beltsville. One group received the
usual ration of cracked corn, cotton
seed meal, and alfalfa hay. The se
cond lot received only cracked soy
beans and alfaalfa hay. The third lot
received a ration of equal parts of
cracked soybeans and cracked com,
with alfalfa hay.
Lambs in each lot averaged more
than a third of a pound a day in
gain while on feed. Most lamb feed
ers are satisfied with this daily fain.
