Abstract
Potatoes are relatively high in feed value and can be used as an energy source for livestock. The protein found in potatoes is relatively easy to digest and utilize. On a per land unit or per growing time unit, potatoes produce more energy than any other crop. The purpose of this publication is to evaluate potato's value as a feed for cattle, sheep and hogs, and to describe advantages and potential problems.
