[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 750488, member: 6897"] Ok...lets say it is a total and complete waste of money...a ton of 12-12-12 mineral contains about 85 lbs. of calcium carbonate in additon to the calcium content in the mon-calcium phosphate which is ordinarily your source of phosphorus. That's about $1.08 per ton for the added calcium in the finished product. Pretty cheap when you consider a cow will hopefully eat 4 ounces of the complete mix. Since the calcium is the cheapest ingredient in the entire mix anything you replace it with will raise the price of the mineral. [/QUOTE]
