Feeding Directions
- Rumevite Beef Finisher Meal is suitable for lot feeding cattle weighing greater than 300 kg liveweight. Cattle weighing less than 300 kg liveweight should be fed Rumevite Beef Weaner Meal, Pellets or Cubes until they reach this weight.
- Before starting to feed Rumevite Beef Finisher Meal ensure that the appropriate animal husbandry procedures are completed – consult a veterinarian for advice. Cattle should be drafted into groups of similar size and age.
- Before starting to feed Rumevite Beef Finisher Meal ensure that all cattle have been fed with palatable hay to appetite for the first day – ensure that all cattle are full with palatable hay.
- Start feeding cattle with Rumevite Beef Finisher Meal at a rate of 0.5 kg per 100 kg liveweight per day. Gradually increase the rate of feeding each day for the next 21 days up to 2 kg per 100 kg liveweight per day.
- Rumevite Beef Finisher Meal can either be fed in troughs or self-feeders.
- When feeding Rumevite Beef Finisher Meal in a self-feeder or trough, ensure that dry pasture, or palatable hay is readily available, and that cattle are able to eat this forage to appetite at all times.
- When using self-feeders, adjust slide settings to regulate feed intake and achieve recommended feeding rates. The feeder slide should be set so that cattle have to lick the feed out from under the slide.
- When feeding in self-feeders, cattle will require 15 – 35 cm of trough space per head.
- When feeding in troughs, cattle will require 30 – 60 cm of trough space per head, depending on their liveweight.
