For generations, Feeds and Feeding: A Handbook for the Student and Stockman has been regarded as one of the most influential and comprehensive references on animal nutrition and livestock feeding ever published. Written by renowned animal nutritionist Frank B. Morrison, Emeritus Professor of Animal Husbandry and Animal Nutrition at Cornell University, this Twenty-Second Edition (1956) represents the culmination of decades of research and practical agricultural experience.
Covering the principles of feeding cattle, sheep, pigs, horses, poultry and other farm animals, Feeds and Feeding combines scientific knowledge with practical advice suitable for farmers, agricultural students, veterinarians, extension officers and anyone involved in livestock production. Topics include feed composition, nutritional requirements, forage crops, concentrates, pasture management, ration formulation, feed efficiency and methods for improving animal health and productivity through balanced nutrition.
Although modern feeding practices have evolved, Morrison’s work remains an important historical reference, documenting mid-twentieth-century agricultural science and the development of animal husbandry. Feeds and Feeding provides valuable insight into feeding systems before the widespread adoption of many modern commercial feed technologies, making it especially useful for researchers studying the history of agriculture and livestock management.
The sturdy hardcover binding and clear text make Feeds and Feeding an excellent working copy as well as an attractive addition to collections of agricultural, veterinary and farming literature. Whether purchased as a practical historical reference, a collectible agricultural textbook or a resource for those interested in traditional livestock production, this classic volume continues to hold significant educational and historical value.
