[QUOTE="novaman, post: 318085, member: 2744"] Alright Beef I'm not saying that I'm right but I have had talked to experts on this stuff and I'm just telling you what I have been told. You are probably right about the 96.5, like I said I wasn't sure. But if you think about it you have a 20kg block of stuff. Now take 4.5% of that and what do you have left? About 900g. Now figure out how long it takes for your cattle to consume a block and divide those 900g up and you don't have much mineral being distributed. Furthermore, the balance of the mineral amounts from the block to what they need are way off. Compare the Zn to Cu ratios and you'll see my point. [/QUOTE]
