- Awesome pregnancy rate through tough weather
- It pays for itself!
Ron ranches 225 cow calf pairs in northwest Nebraska. He was feeding a local mineral mix and caking in the winter, but the costs were adding up.
Ron heard about Riomax® cattle mineral tubs from a neighbor, and after hearing the results he thought, "let's try it!" But it didn't come without a cost... in fact it was a HUGE sticker shock.
But now, between reduced caking costs, the condition of the cows, pregnancy rates, and pounds on the calves, Ron figures it's pretty much a "freebie". "I think were making money using these tubs versus what we were doing in the past," he says. "Like the label says, it'll pay for itself!"
