A highly fortified free-choice mineral specifically designed for beef cows being fed co-products from the corn processing industry.
- Calcium - Guaranteed calcium levels required to balance cow diets already high in phosphorus and potassium.
- Optimal mineral fortification - Formulated to exceed NRC recommendations for trace minerals, helps overcome antagonists and support optimal animal health and performance.
- Thiamine - Added thiamine to reduce the risk of deficiency and health related incidences, such as polio, which may occur in diets containing co-products.
- Optimal vitamin fortification - Vitamins A, D and E support growth, metabolism, reproductive performance and proper immune system function.
- Highly palatable - A mineral does no good if cattle won't eat it. Addition of salt and other highly palatable ingredients keep cattle seeking out the mineral feeder.
- Rain-Cote - Reduces loss of mineral exposed to wind and weather, improves water resistance and reduces 'bricking-up' in wet weather.
