Oats are a nutritious feed for all classes of livestock. The hull, composed of lemma and palea, comprises on the average about 23 percent of the weight of the whole grain. Oats are high in mineral content and also in several vitamins. Formerly largely fed to horses, oats are now used as feed for dairy cattle and poultry as well. Oat hulls from milling are used in poultry mash. For food use, the groat or inner kernel is rolled into flakes and used as oat meal in breakfast foods and baking. Oat flour contains an antioxidant which is used to preserve quality by delaying rancidity. Oat flour may also be mixed with wheat flour for multigrain baked products.
Oat straw is more nutritious and palatable than wheat straw and is important as a supplementary feed on many farms. Fall sown oats fumish nutritious and palatable winter grazing in areas having mild winters.

Whole oats are excellent options for animal feed and sprouting. With the husk intact they have an outstanding germination rate, for growing ornamental oat grass, etc... If you plan on using these oats for rolled oats,oatmeal, grinding into oat flour, etc... you will need to remove the husk. You'd be better off with our organic oat groats.
