Why 16% Protein Works Well for Store Cattle
🔹 Supports Growth Without Overfeeding Protein
Store cattle don’t need extremely high protein like dairy heifers. Around 16% hits the sweet spot: enough to support muscle growth and rumen function without wasting nutrients.
🔹 Efficient Weight Gain
The energy from cereal grains fuels daily gain, while the protein helps build lean muscle. This means better feed-to-gain ratios — a key economic win for producers.
🔹 Stable Rumination and Better Digestibility
Cereal blends, when properly balanced with forage, help maintain healthy rumen fermentation — critical for efficient digestion and overall cattle health.
