[QUOTE="TNRiver, post: 1574127, member: 27635"] That is a wealth of information to get through.. I will have to wait until i get home tonight to make my way through it all! ... but a quick scan of the post made me think something...and this may be a totally different topic, but here goes: If you are a Seedstock producer, do you feel that feeding either of these top of the line minerals (Gro-Tec or VitaFerm) is something you would highly encourage your customers to continue doing? What I mean is, do you think that after your cattle leave your operation, if they are not managed in the same way in terms of mineral program and additives such as Rumensin, will there be a significant drop in "quality" or fleshing ability? The reason I ask is I know for certain that there are VERY few producers in my area that would feed this quality of mineral based solely on price. And I can see that becoming a "Negative" for the reputation of my cattle if they drop in BCS or fleshing ability after they leave my farm all because the customer does not follow the same management plan as I do...
