Sunflower is a crop native to Mexico, traditionally used for the production of oil, seeds and flowers; however, it can be used for feeding dairy cattle. Sunflower hay associated with chickpea and different percentages of sunflower silage inclusion in the feeding of goats and cows were evaluated, and it was found that sunflower in both presentations increases milk production and fat content.
