For cattle producers that are feeding heifers, a recent approval from the Food and Drug Administration now allows cattle producers to feed MGA, Bovatec and Aureomycin in combination for the first time.
“This approval gives cattle producers, who are feeding MGA and Bovatec to control estrus and enhance growth in fed heifers, the flexibility to add Aureomycin to the ration if they need to control or treat a respiratory challenge,” said Martin Andersen, PhD, cattle nutritionist, Beef Strategic Technical Services, Zoetis. “It truly offers more options when it comes to heifer rations.”
