[QUOTE="cjmc, post: 1458227, member: 27842"] Woahhh easy there kemosabe. No need to get your panties in a wad. One I'm not a sales rep. Two nothing in that statement should baffle people in the beef industry. Three let's not drag science's good name though the mud by using "studies & BS" in the same sentence. People that only eat non-implanted meat use similar logic. I'd like to think we are better than that. My logic here is quite simple. If you are going to supplement your cows something why not get some return on your money you spent by supplementing something that would make them come running & maximize animal performance? For instance if I decided to do something similar here I could go to orschlens and get some all stock feed with molasses (like 12%CP?) They would come running for the stuff. But I could also use a 30% range cube, it would also make cows come running.
