Customer Testimonials

“Our Wagyu heifers went from losing weight to gaining good steady growth rates. We totally changed the way we fed our cattle and had to modify our feed ration. We were still able to use our silage and the advice from AgSolutions allowed us to assess the value of our other forages and make changes based on cost and performance. Testing of feed materials proved critical and along the way we further modified our backgrounding rations to be more economical and increase daily gains. In the end, the article we produced speaks for itself and our end market was extremely satisfied with how our cattle went on to perform.”

– Wynand Pheiffer, Wingham, NSW

“MegaMin has provided a saving on our feed rations and our cattle have performed better. Weight gains have averaged up around 2kg per day for light cattle entering the feedlot at 250kg and turning them off around 420kg. An AgSolutions’ Field Advisor is in regular contact with us and if rations need to be reviewed they generally have the new formulation back to us within 48 hours. To have their expertise to review what we do has proven to be very valuable to our business.”

– Steve & Kerry McDonald, Manilla NSW

What ingredients should I use in a ration?

The initial selection of ingredients for your ration will depend largely on what is readily available to you and at the lowest cost possible.  When selecting ingredients it is important to look at the quality and quantity.  A very cheap source of contaminated grain or silage won’t end up so cheap if you end up losing the majority of your herd to toxicity.  You must also be able to adapt the ration as the cost and availability of the ingredients change over time.

The main thing to focus on when formulating a ration is to remember that all animals require a balanced diet to bring out the best in their genetic potential.
