But because forage quality.decli nes rapidly over the summer, your cattle just can't eat enough dry matter to maintain a good nutritional balance. Without increasing supple- mentation to make up for this decline, they begin to draw on their own body reserves. Growth, along with condition and breeding performance, suffers. The easy, convenient way to.pro,ide balanced supple- mentation is with a CO-OP LPS (liquid protein supplement) Lick Wheel Feeder. Located right in your pasture, it requires a minimum .of your time and effort, while offering necessary nutrients on a free choice basis. CO-OP LPS is formulated to ensure that your dry cows and replacement heifers can regulate their intake of protein, _energy, phosphorus, vitamins and trace minerals right through the pasture season. • For top performance from your dry cows and replace- ment heifers, talk to your CO-OP feed representative about the convenience of a Tabor -saving C0 -OP LPS Lick.
