Effect of Supplemental Summer Mineral

Many of our areas got drenched with rain this past month, giving hope to cattle producers.  With pairs going to grass and breeding approaching, now is a good time to remind ourselves and our producers of the benefits of using Aureo (CTC) in our minerals:  improvements in breeding, footrot reduction, increased calf weaning weights and more pounds of beef producer per acre.  With pasture rents going up, forage and grain costs increasing and calf prices reduced from the past few years -- we owe it to producers to help them gain more from their dollars invested with us.  Adding pounds with a healthy reward is a great idea, so don't miss out on it!  Click Here to view attached Alpharma bulletin on the benefits seen by the use of Aureo.
