Research has shown that cattle transitioning to wheat pasture after preconditioning require an acclimation period before significant body weight (BW) gains occur.

Feed costs can leave beef producers digging deep into their pockets. As protein is a critical nutrient in beef cattle’s diets, providing adequate protein is important for long-term animal health and ranch profitability, especially when we know the ‘water-tank-ice-chopping’ type of cool temperatures are quickly approaching. 

It’s no secret that good nutritional management is one of the critical factors that contribute to a profitable herd, especially through the fall calving season.
