Pasture management: recovery and weight gain

How foliar fertilization and rotational grazing raise farm stocking rates and accelerate cattle finishing.

Pasture is the foundation of efficient beef cattle production. Recovering degraded pastures through strategic fertilization improves forage quality and optimizes average daily gain (ADG) of the herd.

Foliar fertilization in established pastures

Often overlooked, foliar nutrition of the grass accelerates regrowth after cattle leave, shortening paddock rest periods and improving crude protein content in the green leaf.

With nourished pastures, growers increase stocking rates per hectare and ensure consistent cattle finishing even in transition months.

"Cattle fatten through the grass they eat. A well-nourished pasture is the secret to shortening the animal production cycle."
