Use 47.5% and cut the hulls out of your bean meal. [/b] 300 lbs of coarse grass hay per ton @ 5% = 7 lbs TP [b]Garbage[/b] 50+ lb of all purpose mineral per to = 260 lbs TP or ~ 13% feed ration [b]Why waste 50 lbs. on mineral when you can buy concentrated trace mineral and vitamin premixes with inclusion rates of only 1 lb. per ton leaving 49 lbs. for other nutrients. [/b] Also you're skipping some steps in your calculations. Rework your paper and turn it in tomorrow with realistic numbers using NRC standards. :dunce: :dunce: :dunce: [/QUOTE]
