[QUOTE="Karin, post: 997165, member: 18961"] SL, I live in Alberta, you live in TN. It's pretty darn hard to keep cattle on pasture all year round when I get 3 to 4 feet of snow every year, unless there's a method of winter grazing such as swath or bale grazing. You really are showing your lack of knowledge and your ignorance of how things are done far north of the 49th parallel. My definition of supplemental feed is not hay, but grain and/or a protein feed supplement. Hay and silage is a FEED source, not a "supplement." You like to twist things around don't you? I am talking about the same BCS range as you: the "American" or "beef" scale of 1 to 9, 9 being obese (or very fat) and 1 being emaciated (very thin.) The Canadian or "dairy" scale is from BCS of 1 to 5. SL I think you're just twisting things around in your head that make things more complicated than they really are. The numbers should mean the same regardless of who's talking here. :bs: Now that's the most ridiculous statement I've ever seen on here, and exactly what I've been trying to telling you is not true at all. And Yes, "nutritional plane" mean the same thing as "nutritional needs" or "level of production" or "reproductive needs" or whatever. Taurus, I completely agree! [/QUOTE]
