[QUOTE="pdfangus, post: 1164229, member: 6543"] in some cases fertilizer ingredients can also be feed additives but I would avoid saying you can use fertilizer a feed stuffs... TSP, triple superphosphate, is a solid fertilizer produced from phosphate rock and phosphoric acid, which has N-P-K composition 0-46-0. - See more at: [url=http://www.potashcorp.com/overview/glossary#sthash.Ziqa2uzD.dpuf]http://www.potashcorp.com/overview/glos ... a2uzD.dpuf[/url] urea is a common example but it comes in food grade and fertilizer grade... I think rock phosphate is interchangeable and non toxic....as well as triple super phosphate. here in Virginia the land grant university is on a campaign to reduce phosphorous addition to livestock rations to reduce runoff to the Chesapeake Bay....Rationale and testing is showing that sufficient P is normally obtained thru the feed ingredients.... I am old school and was trained to balance calcium - phosphorous - magnesium at a ratio of 2-1-1.....darn near impossible to find in a commercial mix today... regarding the 4-6 ozs of soy meal....that was 4-6 ozs daily per 1000 lbs of animal under lush conditions...the article said that sometimes the rate was increased to as much as 24 ozs daily per animal unit.
