Prevention of occurrence of selected mycotoxins in feed warehouse for milking cows

Abstract

The aim of this work was to examine the presence of Fusarium toxins in feed for milking cows in summer and winter. Food samples for milking cows were sampled from a cow farm in the vicinity of Nikšić, Montenegro, in winter and summer. The determined concentrations of the examined mycotoxins in the food samples for feeding milking cows were lower than the maximum allowed concentrations prescribed by the Regular Acts of Montenegro. The obtained results indicate that there was no significant difference in the concentrations of the tested mycotoxins in the food for feeding milking cows during the summer and winter periods, which suggests that with good production and storage practices, food can be protected from mycotoxicological contamination, and cow's milk and meat
