Grinding corn

http://magissues.farmprogress.com/WSA/WA06Jun10/wsa004.pdf

This guy has an excellent idea! I've found that most of the animal nutritionists that I've come across don't seem to understand the benefits of grinding corn vs rolling corn. 5-7 lbs. per cow per day of increased production using less corn makes a lot of sense, especially with corn prices up in the $6-$7.00 a bushel range. I have personally seen a 5 lb increase in my herd of Jerseys.

What can brown do for you?

Thanks to GE we farmers are going to save the world a billion, with just a little dung. 
We are considering building a small scale manure digester to produce our farm electricity.
