Abstract
Analysis of samples of oat hay frequently reveals concentrations of nitrates sufficient to be toxic and cause occasional livestock losses. Pigweeds and sorghum having high concentrations of nitrate nitrogen have also been reported as being toxic to cattle. In view of this fact this study was begun to determine what factors might play a role in nitrate metabolism and the extent of their influence.
