Phosphorus Supplements in Beet By-Product Rations

E. J. Maynard1

Utah State Agricultural College

Abstract

1. Steamed bone meal, cottonseed cake and mill run bran, respectively, were added as phosphorus supplements to a beet by-product ration consisting of wet beet pulp, beet molasses, alfalfa hay and salt for fattening cattle.
2. The addition of these supplements cured pica, improved the appetite of the cattle, increased daily gains and reduced feed costs per unit of gain.
3. Significant increases in blood phosphorus resulted from the use of these supplements.
4. Experiments and an extension demonstration indicate the value of steamed bone meal and other phosphorus supplements in beet by-product rations for fattening cattle.
