Abstract

"A number of feed additives increase the performance of beef cattle. Wise use of feed additives is necessary to get top performance of beef cattle fed growing and finishing rations. There are restrictions on the use of most feed additives. Some must be withdrawn from the ration a certain number of days before the animal slaughtered. Many feed additives are not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for feeding to breeding animals. Some are restricted to cattle being fed for slaughter. There are additives that reduce liver abcesses, a problem with cattle fed high grain rations. Others aid in the control of founder, feedlot bloat, legume bloat, foot rot, parasites and other disorders of cattle."--First page.
