[QUOTE="novatech, post: 760322, member: 5494"] I have been using a high phosphate mineral for several years. This spring I put 85 lbs P on one pasture as per soil test. The cattle grazed this pasture the most and the mineral consumption is almost gone. I can understand how some could get away with no mineral if everything the cow needs is already available through the grass. The one thing that you have to remember is that trace elements are just as important and sometimes you don't get those results with the soil report. General health and fertility can be affected by the lack of trace elements so I leave the mineral out year round. [/QUOTE]
