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 -

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.
