Pasture 21: A Free Choice Supplement for Beef Cattle on Pasture
Pasture 21 is a supplement that provides a high level of protein ideal for herds that are not receiving adequate protein from forages alone. The combination of natural protein as well as non-protein nitrogen can help support forage utilization and animal performance when medium and low quality forages are fed. In addition to offering 21% protein, Pasture 21 is highly fortified with vitamins A, D, and E, and contains up to 125% of NRC trace mineral requirements.
Protein often times becomes the most limiting nutrient for cattle grazing crop residues and dormant grass pastures. In these situations, protein supplementation is required to efficiently harvest energy from these protein deficient forage-based diets. Studies conducted at Kansas State University would illustrate that NGS protein supplements support both gain and efficiency when fed in conjunction with protein deficient forages.

Feeding Directions
Provide free choice as a supplement to pasture cattle at the rate of one block for each 15 to 25 head. Place blocks in each pasture near areas frequented by livestock, such as watering locations, shade or loafing areas. Cattle normally consume approximately 3/4 pound per head daily. Consumption may vary depending on climate, grazing conditions, condition of livestock, and/or availability of other feeds. In situations where climate and/or other factors result in consumption of less than 3/4 pound per head daily, intake of supplement can be increased by increasing the number of blocks per pasture.
Provide access to fresh water and free-choice salt at all times.
