Excretion of Dieldrin in the Milk of Cows Fed Dieldrin-Sprayed Forage and Technical Dieldrin
Journal of Dairy Science, 1954 Summary Dieldrin was detected in the milk of four cows when fed liay made from forage that had been sprayed with 3.5 and 7.0oz. of dieldrin per acre. The average daily dieldrin intakes were 0.10 and 0.75mg. per kilogram of body weight when the cows were fed the hays sprayed with 3.5 and 7.0oz. of dieldrin per acre, respectively.
