Pastures are the cheapest form of feed for livestock, however, once pastures age, hay off, or are frost-affected, the quality decreases, and livestock productivity declines. This occurs because dry pastures have:
- Lowered digestibility that decreases feed intake and increases rumen retention time
-
Decreased energy (ME) which reduces livestock performance
-Decreased protein and reduced efficiency of microbial fermentation
In this video, National Sales Manager - Paul Prtichgard discusses strategies to assist stock in getting the most out of the feed-in your paddock.
