Farmers increasingly use Vitamo feeds from Towa Milling of Cedar Rapids to cut costs by five to ten dollars a ton while boosting gains. Hog weights exceed 200 pounds in under six months and cattle gain about three pounds daily with Vitamo balancers and pellets. Local producers, including Leland Merchant and Greiner Brothers, report strong hog and Hereford results, aided by self feeders and ground grain mixes.
