| Forage | Bedding
Florida has a variety of forages that are suitable for cattle. The
University of Florida's Forage Team website provides information on
different forage varieties and their management. Additionally, the South Florida
Beef-Forage Program is another resource that coordinates extension and
research activities for enhanced forage and cattle production in Central
and South Florida.
Florida livestock hay includes timothy hay, coastal hay, perennial peanut hay, alfalfa hay, orchard hay,
t & a, timothy hay, timothy alfalfa, Tifton 44 and 85, orchard alfalfa, T&O, cattle hay,
and straw bales. Also, square bales plus
round bales are available for coastal, perennial peanut, and alfalfa hay.
Hay may also be purchased in pellet, cube, and chopped formats to suit
different needs. Note that pellet and cubed hay is compact and lend itself to easy
transport, but must be soaked in water prior to feeding to horses or
livestock.
Corn
Whole corn, cracked corn, and corn residue are all used as part of
farm animal nutrition. Generally it is part of the covering of the corn that is used for animal feed and it is these parts that are loaded with soluble and insoluble nutrients and fiber. These fibers help reduce cholesterol levels and also improve the digestive health of animals.
Corn can be used in many different types of back grounding and finishing diets, and it can serve as a supplement in forage-based diets for beef cows. However, corn is relatively low in protein and high in starch, which can affect forage utilization negatively, especially in diets based on lower-quality forages.
Shavings and Bedding
Shavings and straw bedding are available in bulk and in bags. Shavings come in
large and small sizes as well as pellets that expand to absorb wetness.
Horse Feed and Equestrian Supplies
Florida feed stores also sell brand name horse feeds and equine supplies such as horse tack,
