[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 1186470, member: 6897"] $100 a ton for the finished product?? You must not be putting much value on your corn. Cottonseed meal is a good protein source and usually most cost effective. Forget the candy and soybean meal as both will simply add cost to the mix. Check with a local feed mill that manufacturers their own feed. They should have a concentrated low inclusion vitamin and mineral premix that you can add to the mix for around $1.50 for each ton of finished feed. Then add your calcium but you'll still need a source for phosphorus and salt. Might be more simple to just buy some bagged 12-12 mineral and add to the mix calculating that each cow will need 4 oz. per head per day of the mineral. [/QUOTE]
