SUMMARY

  • Profitable beef production relies on achieving good growth rates and efficient feed conversion.

  • This study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of Orego-Stim Powder (OSP) on the growth performance of Aberdeen Angus cross beef cattle fed a forage-based ration.

  • The addition of OSP to feed improved growth rates, resulting in a return on investment of 2.5:1.

Trial Summary - Orego-Stim Improves Ewe Performance During Late Pregnancy and Early Lactation
Trial Summary - Orego-Stim Improves Ewe Performance During Late Pregnancy and Early Lactation
Orego-Stim is known to benefit maternal energy balance and lactation performance and so was included in ewe concentrate rations to understand effects in ovines.
Trial Summary - Enhanced Growth of Calves Fed Orego-Stim®
Trial Summary - Enhanced Growth of Calves Fed Orego-Stim®

Orego-Stim Liquid, when provided at a dose of 2 ml/calf/day, improved growth performance of dairy calves by 2 kg at day 56 (weaning) and 2.9 kg by 70 days of age. 

This could result in an additional 21 - 31 kg of milk in the first lactation, giving a ROI of 4.5 : 1.
