Beacon Lacto-Pels are formulated to meet the needs of high producing cows,
even when roughage quality is average or less than average. Lacto-Pels is a
feed designed to get the most milk possible from the grain fed.
Cows relish this highly palatable feed and clean it up readily, even in
milking parlors. Because they do, even the highest producers get the energy
they need for top milk production without depleting body reserves.
Lacto-Pels are uniform, flow well and are especially suited to bulk handling
and rapid feeding.
Protein is guaranteed at 16% or 20%. Fat at not less than 3'/2% and crude
fiber no more than 8%. It's a highly efficient feed.
Palatability comes from the use of cane molasses with wheat middlings and
other ingredients. Corn distillers grains are present as a source of fat and
energy, and for their milk stimulating properties. Dehulled soybean meal is the
chief protein source, and corn and wheat middlings all help provide the highly
digestible energy.
Like all Beacon dairy rations, Lacto-Pelsare fortified with trace minerals plus
3,000 units of vitamin A per pound and 6,000 units of vitamin D. This is three
times the level of vitamin fortification in ordinary dairy rations and gives good
insurance against deficiencies caused by poor or insufficient roughage.
Beacon Lacto-Pels help cows to maximurh milk production for each 100
pounds of feed.
