Thinking about your summer grass plan? If your end strategy is to sell after grazing, the goal is naturally to gain as many pounds as possible in a short time for the least cost. A distillers cube program can be flexible to push cattle or hold them steady as you monitor the market. Feeding rates for this strategy might look like this:

1. Start cattle in a trap with any available forage.
2. Feed about 2.5 lbs./hd/day for 2 weeks to 45 days or until summer pastures are ready.
3. For first half of summer, feed 6-8 lbs. per week.
4. Halfway through the summer as forage quality begins to decline, push them back up to 8-14 lbs. per week to maintain gains.

Did you know our extruded cubes are actually more digestible than traditionally pelleted products? The process breaks down chemical bonds in the distillers grains to expose fat and proteins, allowing them to be better absorbed and utilized. Additionally, the broken down fiber encourages animals to eat slower, salivate more and have fewer digestive issues.
