Water source affects cattle and calf gains in Alberta trials
Field trials at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada near Stavely show dugout water reduces weight gains in cows and calves compared with trough water. In 33 days, cows on dugout water lost 0.2 kg while calves gained 26.3 kg. trough water yielded cows up 7.4 kg and calves up 33.9 kg. A separate 71 day study with steers found 23 percent lower weight gain on dugout water.
