Hear our conversation with Travis Johnson, a rancher based in Eastern Arizona at an elevation of around 6,000 feet. He manages approximately 3,000 mother cows and 1,000 to 2,500 yearlings in a challenging environment characterized by low precipitation. Travis spoke about the importance of keeping the cows scattered to control grazing effectively.
He said that using the Riomax® tubs has been instrumental in better grazing management. Specifically, he's found that the Rio tubs have delivered results, with higher conception rates and increased weaning weights when compared to other supplements. Despite being a more expensive tub, on a per-day basis the Rio tubs cost him less than other tubs and have proven to be cost-effective for his ranching operation, offering a 40% to 50% return on investment!
