Abstract
Mycotoxins are host to a range of issues in both dairy and beef cattle. Caused by molds and fungi in feed, mycotoxins damage the intestinal tract and interfere with digestion. The devastating effects include reduced feed consumption, lower reproductive performance and diminished overall productivity.
