We have recently been working with a customer who is looking into starting a
grazing operation. We would like to help this customer build a ration on
the premise of providing 50% of their dry matter from their pasture (22%
CP). The feedstuffs they have available include alfalfa hay, corn silage,
earlage, cottonseed, and distiller's grains with flexibility to use various
supplements. It seems to be difficult to get ADF and NDF low enough and to
get RUP and NFC high enough given these restraints. Does anyone have
suggestions or sample rations that have worked.
Thank you,
