A study of the effect of physical, botanical and chemical characteristics of the nutritional value of western Canadian oats.

The value of oats as an animal feed has been recognized for many years. Its position in our livestock feeding program is shown by the fact that among the cereal grains grown in Canada, oats production is exceeded only by that of wheat. During the crop year of 1951 production amounted to 488 million bushels and during the same period approximately 372 million bushels were used as animal feed. Oats holds a unique position in the Canadian livestock feeding program that cannot be filled by any other grain.
