Fast Facts

  • Improved hair coat, cow condition, and visible bloom on cows and calves
  • Steadier milk production, stronger conception, and higher weaning weights

  • More vigorous calves at birth and a tighter calving window

  • Improved manure consistency early on

  • Less overall consumption compared to traditional mineral or molasses tubs

  • A noticeably calmer, more content herd

In these review videos, Daron and Leann Priest share how Riomax® lick tubs have supported their grass-fed cattle operation as they transitioned away from grain, and focused on more of a natural feeding process.

Managing rugged pasture, average-quality hay, and variable water sources meant they needed a dependable way to fill nutritional gaps when forage quality declined. Riomax® fit seamlessly into their program, delivering steady, need-based intake—especially during calving—and supporting overall herd performance.

As Daron puts it, “We really didn’t know what to expect getting into it—but we’re all in.”

For the Priests, Riomax® has become a key part of building a natural, forage-based program they believe in—helping them care for their cattle, steward their land, and invest in the long-term future of their ranch.

Open cows, pounds you don't wean, sickness, or forage that goes out the back end don't make you money, do they?

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

"We've been able to save enough hay with Riomax and we're increasing our production with Rhyzogreen. Both of those products have made it possible for us to have the confidence in knowing we're gonna be just fine.

"I think it's a pretty cheap way to get way more out of your soil than what we do weithout. More out of what they eat, so they eat less, and Rhyzogreen gives them more grass."

"...It's a win-win. You're attacking it on both fronts and you're nailing it on both fronts, so it's kind of a no-brainer. Why wouldn't you do both (Riomax and Rhyzogreen) at the same time?"

"I saw increased yields on every field I treated, every one...The worst yield increase was 17% up to 85%."

“The ground I sprayed versus the ground I didn’t was about 3 bales to the acre difference... $300/acre value. The product has more than paid for itself. This is something we’ll continue to do. It speaks for itself.”
