Canadian researcher gives input on cattle nutritional requirements for updated guide book
A revised edition of the nutrient requirements of beef cattle has been released.
This is the eighth version published since 1944 by the United States’ National Research Council. It includes updated information on nutritional requirements, byproduct feeding and environmental impacts of all aspects of the beef sector. Feed products, cattle type and new research have changed since the last version was circulated in 1996.
