Protein supplementation for stocker cattle on rangeland
County Agent's column notes that grazing stockers on rangeland this summer can economically boost weight gains. A low rate of high protein supplement can add .33 to .50 lb per head daily, with 38 to 41 percent crude protein feed at about one pound per head per day. Additives may raise gains by .15 to .20 lb daily if fed three times weekly. Compare feed costs to value of extra gain. at $80 feeder cattle and $4 cwt price slide, added gain is worth about 48 cents per pound. For details contact Dr. Ted McCollum or local extension agent.
