10% extra daily gain-on 8% less feed
...with Ful-O-Pep Super Cattle-izer Beef Supplement
We’ve got the figures! Over 175 lots of steers
and heifers have been fed Ful-O-Pep Cattle-izer
at the Ful-O-Pep Research Farm. The usual
improvement was 7% to 12% in daily gain ...
on 6% to 10% less feed per cwt. gain ... with
usual net return of $3 to $7 more per head!
Comparison lots were fed exactly the same’
except for the “Cattle-izer.” It’s a great new
development in ruminant nutrition.

How does it work? The “Cattle-izer" principle
changes the proportion and concentration bf
several organic acids produced in the rumen
... resulting in about 10% more useful energy
from the feed.
