TAKE THE RIGHT ROAD THIS CALVING SEASON.

The last thing you need to worry about is sick calves that don't gain like they should.

10 - 40 LBS. INCREASE IN WEANING WEIGHTS

15 - 30% FORAGE SAVINGS

3 - 10% INCREASE IN CONCEPTION RATES

Better overall herd health

Calf sickness & scours, mineral deficiencies, or forage that goes out the back end don't make you money, do they?

A healthy calf crop drives profits higher. And a profitable ranch can withstand volatile markets and unpredictable weather. Gain control of your future.

Reduce calving headaches with Riomax

Riomax® is revolutionizing the way ranchers get through calving season. With a complete 100% protected mineral package, Riomax gets mineral into the bloodstream to bolster calves' immune systems & reduce mineral deficiencies. This leaves you with less stress, healthy, vigorous calves that gain better, and a more padded pocketbook.

Not to mention, this also helps mama recover faster and prepare for breed back.

Expect to see a 10-40 lb increase in weaning weights

Here's the math on an example 400 head ranch:

Avg. increase in pounds at weaning

3,720

ON 372 CALVES

(At +10 lb per calf)

Added Revenue

$6,882

FROM 372 CALVES

(At $1.85/lb)

But how?

First off, our impact on reproductive performance is not just getting more cows bred, but also getting cows bred sooner. This means calves on the ground sooner and more days at mama’s side before weaning. At roughly 2 lb per day, this stacks up pretty quick.
Secondly, better digestion for mama means higher milk fat. This has a direct correlation to the daily gain of your calves all summer long.

“Calves came off 30 lb heavier than normal...and I’m contributing a lot of this to the mineral program... steers were 638 coming out of the “Big Hole” [Montana] and normally we’re at 600 lb on the steers... and the buyer said they were the most uniform bunch”

why is quality nutrition key?

PREVENT CALF SICKNESS

Scours, salmonella, and respiratory diseases are the frustration of ranchers across the continent. Nutritionally sound calves are stronger, more vigorous, more efficient, and set up for a successful life. Healthy calves make your life easier - not just during calving season - but for the rest of the animal's life.

IMPROVE COLOSTRUM QUALITY

You all know that it is critical for calves to receive colostrum after they're born. Higher-quality colostrum will in turn help the calf build a stronger immune system for the months to come and the rest of its life.

SET THE COW UP FOR SUCCESSFUL BREED-BACK

The first step to a successful breeding season is a successful calving season. Helping mama cow to calve well, and then clean well is essential to set her up for re-breeding. Ultimately, reducing the challenges you face with cows that don't clean and the uterine infections associated directly impacts the next breeding season.
