Can you SAVE CATTLE FEED Without Sacrificing Herd Health?
ARNO DOERKSEN - GEM, AB
Herd Details
- 100% forage developed commercial and purebred Hereford and Angus cattle
Fast Facts
- Only fed 16 days throughout the winter
- No problems at calving time
- It'll pay for itself in feed savings!
“Expensive to buy, cheap to use” is Arno's logic on Riomax®, the cattle lick tub that pays for itself. He's with Gemstone Cattle Co, a family operation in southern Alberta. The reason he uses Riomax®? "If the cattle are on it, you're saving feed," he states. In fact, he only fed 16 days throughout the winter... and the cattle were content.
Not only are they content, but flourishing, on pretty dry grass. "Do the economics on a 15%-20% feed savings," he says, "that becomes quite significant." Arno realizes the Riomax® mineral program has a premium cost to it. "But when you consider the feed savings, it'll pay for itself."
15-30% forage & hay savings with Riomax
Riomax® is revolutionizing the way ranchers deal with high input costs. With better digestion, your herd can get all the nutrients they need from less grass. This leaves you with more days on grass (you start feeding later in the fall), less stress, and a more padded pocketbook.
