Framework 365 Mineral Performance MG

For beef cattle grazing low magnesium pastures.

Life Stage:	Breeder, Cow/Calf
Feed Type:	Vitamin or Mineral
Feed Form:	Granular
Packaging:	50-lb Bag

Description

Lush, cool season, spring grass and wheat pasture present the greatest threat for grass tetany. Magnesium concentration in the forage is low and potassium concentration is high during this time of rapid growth. This also coincides with late gestation and/or early lactation, when nutrient demands on the cow are highest. Additionally, while magnesium is stored in bone, it is not easily mobilized from bone when the diet is lacking. Offering Framework 365 Mineral® Performance MG free-choice 3 to 4 weeks before cows are turned out on tetany-risk pasture, and while grazing, can help prevent grass tetany.

This mineral is formulated to provide 7 g of Availa®4, and 20 g of magnesium, when consumed at 6 oz. Availa®4 is research proven to positively impact reproductive performance in beef cattle. Consumption should average 6 oz per head daily. The amount consumed will vary depending on the quality, type and quantity of feedstuffs available.

Availa®4 - Availa®4 amino acid trace mineral complexes offer trace mineral supplementation in a form that is highly bioavailable to the animal and are research proven to improve reproductive performance in cattle.
12% magnesium - Provides 20 grams of magnesium at 6 oz intake to aid in the prevention of grass tetany.
Calcium and phosphorus - A 2 to 1 calcium to phosphorus ratio is ideal for cattle on pasture, which tend to be deficient in phosphorus.
High trace mineral fortification - Formulated to exceed NRC recommendations for trace minerals, helps overcome antagonists and support optimal animal health and performance.
Optimal vitamin fortification - Vitamins A, D and E support growth, metabolism, reproductive performance and proper immune system function.
Highly palatable - The addition of salt and other highly palatable ingredients keep cattle seeking out the mineral feeder.
Rain-Cote® - Reduces the loss of mineral exposed to wind and weather, improve water resistance and reduces ‘bricking-up’ in wet weather.

Feeding Directions

Hand-feed Framework 365 Mineral Performance MG to beef cattle on pasture in covered mineral feeders. Locate feeders near water. Do not feed any other source of salt. Animals should consume approximately 6 ounces of Framework 365 Mineral Performance MG per head per day.

Feed Framework 365 Mineral Performance MG on what pasture during early spring or on regular pastures at times when magnesium may be deficient. In early spring, Framework 365 Mineral Performance MG should be feed 3 to 4 weeks prior to time when cattle are first turned out on lush pasture.
