YYJ..v W Ma Feed testing can pay dividends One can see in Table I that pork prices have decreased dramatically while at the same time feed prices have risen just as drastically. Even with tripartite payments, this turn of events has changed the swine industry into a non-profitable business for most pork producers. Since feed contributes 60% or more to the cost off raising a pig to market weight, we must ensure that the proper nutrients are being fed to livestock. If the nutrients are too high, we are throwing money away. On the other end of the scale, if nutrients are too low, productivity is lowered and days to market increase. Under -feeding also costs extra dollars associated with building and equipment overhead per finishing pig, increased death losses and medication associated with extra stress. In order that the producer is able to get the most out of his feed dollars, two feed analysis vouchers are provided free to the enrolled producer annually for the dura - Feeder Pig Prices/kg Market Hog Prices/100 kg Corn/Tonne 44% Soybean Meal Tonne ARM REPORT Bruce County OMAF tion of the O.P.I.I.P. program. The vouchers are good for a Type III analysis. This analysis tests for dry mat- ter, crude protein calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, manganese, cop- per and zinc. With this information the pro- ducer can ensure a balanced ration for his operation. The vouchers for 1988 are valid until Mar. 31, 1989. The feed analysis input forms and sample bags are available at your local O.M.A.F. office. These vouchers are worth $19.00 each. Let's not let $38.00 slip through our fingers. The free vouchers won't alter your cash flow at all, but an improperly balanced feed ration could alter it greatly.
