Feeding Guide
- Pasture should be in abundant supply and cattle should have access to a reliable supply of clean water at all times.
- Start supplementation before cattle start losing weight.
FEEDING
- Troughs should initially be placed a minimum of 200m from watering
points.
- After several days move the troughs/drums out into the paddock and well away from the water points.
This will reduce intakes and encourage stock to graze the paddocks.
- Do not allow troughs to be emptied.
- To help boost breeding performance, feed 6-8 weeks prior to mating.
- Monitor intakes when starting cattle to avoid excessive intakes of urea.
- Protect feeding points from wet weather.
- Read “Advice and Warnings for Feeding Dry Supplements” on the Riverina website.
RECOMMENDED INTAKES
- ADULT CATTLE: 150g / head / day
- WEANER CATTLE: 100g / head / day
- Pasture quality, animal mineral status and condition will influence the level of intake.
- Refer to “Advice and Warnings for Feeding Dry Supplements”.
DISCONTINUE FEEDING IF INTAKES EXCEED
