development in his herd.
Habegger stressed that the
new additive in the formulas
is not a hormone or growth
stimulant, artificially
stimulating an animal to eat
more feed to grow larger.
Instead, it changes the
animals natural rumen
digestion, making the rumen
more efficient in converting
feed into energy for main
tenance and growth.
In short, Pennfield’a new
feed formulations will im
prove feed efficiency by
producing equal gains on
less feed.
Throughout the extensive
testing of these new, high
efficiency formulations
there has been no evidence of
stress in the test animals,
and there is no withdrawal
time for cattle raised on the
formulations. Feed savings
continue right up to the time
the cattle are marketed.
Testing indicates that the
new additive in these for
mulations is equally ef
fective in all types of cattle
... steers, heifers,
yearlings, purebeds, and
crossbreds. And, it improves
feed efficiency in all rations -
from high concentrate to
high roughage.
When asked why Penn
field, a feed company, will be
offering new feed for
mulations which will reduce
feed consumption, Habegger
pointed out that the company
prides itself on being an
Agri-business consultant to
its customers, not just the
feed supplier. “The
remarkable feed efficiency
of these formulations is an
important new discovery,”
said Habegger. “It is Penn
fleld’s policy to seek out and
make available all new
methods or techniques which
will help our customers run a
more modern, efficient and
profitable operation.”
Pennfield Feeds will begin
offering these high efficiency
beef formulations following
routine government ap
proval to do so. The new feed
formulations should be
available some time in mid-
February.
