you can't buy it—
you have to build it !
Over the years, cattlemen have learned that
the only "Perfect Ration” is one they build
themselves.
They’ve found that feed companies don’t
sell protein supplements or standard’com
mercial feeds—bagged or otherwise—that
are exactly right for every feeder’s needs. If
they did, nobody, could afford to buy them.
As a result, better beef producers have
turned to the Pre-Mix Concept of feeding
building the ration themselves.
How? By using VIGORTONE beef cattle
pre-mix BOVOTONE 12-D—a potent blend
of vitamins, minerals, trace elements, and
active live cell veast—added to gram or
ensilage and natural protein.
