Not in very small amount as they can get it in nature. (Remember that
natural grass seeds fall to the ground as soon as they are ripe. It is
also possible that ruminants avoid eating the straws with flowers and
seeds to ensure there will be more grass next season.)
But in large amounts there could very well be a problem.
