Nitrate Poisoning of Livestock
Nitrate poisoning can occur commonly in cattle raised in North Dakota and other areas of the western Great Plains.

Sheep and cattle are more susceptible to poisoning than nonruminant species because microbes in their digestive tract favor the conversion of nitrate to nitrite.
