WINTERGRAZER CATTLE MINERAL
Remarkable! The only way to describe this F-R-M product that has been fed for over 40 years now, by hundreds of cattlemen in the Tri-State Area, to thousands of cattle, many with a history of grass tetany in their herds… AND NOW WE HAVE MADE IT EVEN BETTER!
Since 1927, F-R-M has been supplying feeds of the highest quality and performance in the animal feed industry. We supplied your grandfather and your great grandfather. Continuing in that tradition, a decision was made to have independent nutritionists, with years of commercial production experience, review our mineral line and suggest any nutritional or ingredient adjustments that could make these feeds perform even better. All of the nutrient and ingredient levels of our Wintergrazer Cattle Mineral have been reviewed and adjusted, when necessary, to provide the maximum return for your dollar.
The practice of supplemental feeding of beef and dairy cattle while grazing on oats, rye, wheat, millet, fescue, winter or early spring grass, with F-R-M Wintergrazer Cattle Mineral to supply the animal with supplemental magnesium, offers cattlemen an opportunity to 1) Help prevent low blood magnesium levels (considered to be one of the main problems causing grass tetany). and 2) To provide the other vital minerals, trace minerals, salt, and vitamins that most efficiently supplement the nutrition cattle get from temporary winter and summer pastures!
