Nutrition Plus Stocker Nutrition Supplements
At Nutrition Plus we have designed several different mineral programs specifically for different areas. We offer a wide variety of feed additives to help you with your specific needs during certain critical times.
Whether your cattle are grazing native range grasses, improved grass pastures, wheat pasture or other forages we are dedicated to finding the right mineral program to optimize your cattle’s performance.
Nutrition Plus Stocker products are mineral-vitamin mixes designed to aid in balancing a stocker calf's diet when grazing pastures that are deficient in meeting cattle requirements for optimum performance. Our Nutrition Plus Stocker Plus line products contain elevated levels of the major minerals phosphorus and magnesium, and elevated levels of trace minerals-copper, manganese, zinc, iodine and vitamin E for situations where additional fortification is required.
Our Nutrition Plus Mineral products for stocker operations are manufactured at a Production Facility that is "State of the Art". The production facility manufactures premix and mineral formulations exclusively (no feeds) and is specially designed with specific equipment, using the best ingredients available to make a quality mineral product. Optimum particle size results in excellent animal intake and nutritional utilization with less waste. So, each bite is a consistent mix of the right ingredients for optimum performance.

Basic Mineral Nutrition
Grasses and other forages are deficient in certain mineral nutrients. Minerals that are lacking in the diet may be force fed by self-feeding common salt-mineral mixtures formulated to provide needed minerals when the mixture is consumed in amounts to satisfy the animals’ appetite for salt. Other than for common salt, animals apparently do not have the ability to select needed minerals. Efficient animal production is not possible unless nutrient requirements are met. Many years of field testing, forage analysis and trials have gone into developing a good balanced mineral that is consumed adequately and will improve cattle condition, health and performance, resulting in improving your bottom line.
