Tall Fescue is a cool season grass that is frequently infected with the endophyte fungus. The endophyte produces a variety of ergot alkaloids, which are responsible for the toxic effects observed in cattle. Cattle consuming endophyte fungus will have reduced intakes, weight loss, dull rough hair coat, reduced milk production and poor reproductive performance. Proper pasture and cattle management is key to minimizing the negative effects of endophyte-infected fescue. Adding a well-fortified mineral supplement can help cattle overcome the nutritional challenges that endophyte-infected pasture pose. Framework 365 Mineral Performance Fescue Availa®4 provides the additional nutrition cattle need to thrive.
This mineral is formulated to provide 7 g of Availa®4 when consumed at 4 oz. Availa®4 is research proven to positively impact reproductive performance in beef cattle. The amount consumed will vary depending on the quality, type and quantity of feedstuffs available.
Hand-feed Framework 365 Mineral Performance Fescue in a dry, clean bunk or mineral feeder. The amount consumed will vary depending on the quality, type and quantity of feedstuffs available. Cattle should consume approximately 4 ounces per head per day.
