Investing in the right trace mineral can make your operation more profitable.
Hydroxychloride sources of copper, manganese, and zinc are relatively new to the beef industry compared to other sources. They are an improved source relative to sulfates because of their unique chemistry, which also makes them very inexpensive relative to other improved sources like organic trace minerals. In recent years, hydroxychloride sources of copper, manganese, and zinc have been scientifically proven to improve mineral bioavailability, mineral palatability, vitamin stability, and fiber digestibility in diets compared to sulfate sources.
R&D
Most trace mineral programs can be dramatically “fine-tuned” by carefully evaluating the trace mineral source and level that is being fed. These two factors in trace mineral supplementation can make an enormous difference in cattle performance and profitability.
