| Animal Suitability: |
Beef and Dairy > 150 kg (live weight) - Indicative weights only |
Feeding Guide:
| Background Feeding
Feed as a supplement for an extra energy and protein source. Allow either free access to self feeders or provide a ration per head per day.
Introductory Feeding
Feed up to 14 days prior to introducing a fattening ration such as Supreme Cattle Finisher or Supreme Lamb Finisher Pellets.
Complete Feeding
IMPORTANT – when animals are fed in confinement or if pasture is limited, feed as an unlimited feed source or as a ration every day. To maintain a consistent plane of nutrition do not let the pellet supply run out, otherwise take a couple of days to reintroduce pellets. |
