With the rapid increase
in the production of corn distillers grains/solubles
Hormel CP Balancer is specifically designed to work,
and balance well nutritionally, with dried corn distillers/solubles.
Dried corn distillers/solubles provides extra protein,
energy and phosphorus and should be a good source of
bypass Methionine. It definitely has the potential to
save money over a diet that includes only corn and supplement.
Your local Hormel Feed Division representative can help
you take advantage of dried corn distillers/solubles
and put some extra cash on the bottom line as a result.
Holstein steer diets that include wet distillers can
often save even more.
CAUTION: Do not allow horses or other equines access
to formulations containing Monensin. Ingestion of Monensin
by equines has been fatal. Do not exceed levels of Monensin
recommended in the feeding directions, as reduced average
daily gain may result. Feeding undiluted or mixing errors
resulting in high concentrations of Monensin could be
fatal to cattle. Must be thoroughly mixed feeds before
use. Do not use in calves to be processed for veal.
Do not feed to lactating dairy cows.
DB TMR Base
Mix R800 TY360
Hormel DB TMR Base Mix R800 TY360
is another product designed for feeding Holstein steers
with diets that include wet distillers grains. It is
typically fed at the rate of ½ pound per head
daily, but in meal form. There would not be much value
in pelleting this product if it is going to be fed with
wet distillers grains as that would tend to soften and
break up the pellet. The same cautions apply as those
listed for CP Balancer R560 TY240.
DIFFERENCES
BETWEEN HOLSTEIN
AND BEEF BREED STEERS
- Holsteins require 10 to 12%
more energy for maintenance than beef breeds.
- Holstein steers use feed energy
more efficiently for protein and less efficiently
for fat deposition than beef breeds.
- Feedlot research has shown
that Holsteins require 8 to 10% more feed per unit
of gain over the entire feeding period than smaller
framed beef breeds.
- Holstein steers consume 7%
more dry matter than beef steers.
- Holstein steers show better
performance response to high grain diets than beef
steers.
- Holstein steers are less adaptable
to environmental stress with less hair, external fat
and thinner hide.
