SO YEAH, WHAT DOES RIOMAX® EVEN COST?
YES - GOOD QUESTION. GLAD TO HELP!
RIOMAX ® PRICING
Riomax® is hard to put an exact price on because there is a lot of variations and different sizes, different packaging, USA to Canada, forage quality and quantity discounts. Let's open this up and give you an idea at least. What we focus on, is bringing that cost per head per day down. Up front Riomax® is up to two to three times the price of competitor products per ton or per pound, but because it is so concentrated it has a low daily consumption or daily cost.
The cost ranges somewhere between 16¢ and 67¢ per head per day. Built into this range, there are several factors that affect your cost:
Quality of Forage
Higher Quality Forage
=
Lower cost/head/day
Quantity Discounts
Larger Order
=
Lower cost/head/day
Product Upgrades
Add Fly Control
=
Higher cost/head/day
Container Type and Size
Smaller Container
=
Higher cost/head/day

FULL LOAD

Why does consumption vary and when does it vary?
Cows will self-regulate on Riomax®
so if the grass is really good, they will eat proportionately less.
If the grass is really poor, they will eat proportionately more. Cows have learned to self-regulate naturally. (Why can't humans get that figured out?!?) What we see is a consumption of 1/8lb to 1/3lb with 1/3lb being your ceiling that is where the COSTGUARD® consumption guarantee kicks in. That takes the risk off of your shoulders.
Where we have ranchers that use Riomax® year-round, they will typically see an average consumption for the year close to the low side. What they are seeing is those cows self-regulating because they are on a consistent plane of nutrition, they don't have the peaks and valleys like they would if you only feed for a few months and take them off again.
