NE-22: A Free Choice Supplement for Cattle on Pasture
NE-22 is a Nutritionally Engineered® mineral-fortified supplement intended for use in beef cattle that are grazing mid- to late-summer pastures or when grasses begin to set a seed head, NE-22 is ideal for herds that are not receiving minimum nutrient requirements from forages alone.
In addition to offering 22% protein, NE-22 is highly fortified with vitamins A, D, and E, and contains up to 125% of NRC trace mineral requirements. Phosphorus is typically one of the first limiting nutrients for grazing cattle. NE-22 contains 2% added phosphorous to help balance out pastures that are low in phosphorus. Important for bone development and cell energy, cattle short on phosphorous will show fragile bones, poor growth, low appetite, chewing of wood/hair/bones, poor reproductive performance, and reduced milk production.

Feeding Directions
Provide free choice as a supplement to pasture cattle at the rate of one block for each 15 to 25 head. Place blocks in pastures near areas frequented by cattle, such as watering locations, shade or loafing areas. Cattle normally consume approximately 0.75 pound per head daily. Consumption may vary depending on climate, grazing conditions, condition of cattle and/or availability of other feeds. In situations where climate and/or other factors result in consumption less than 0.75 pound per head daily, intake of supplement can be increased by providing additional blocks per pasture.
Provide access to fresh water and free-choice salt at all times.
If cattle experience excessive stress due to adverse weather conditions, shipping, weaning, or periods of high production, switching to SmartLic® StressLic® Supplement (USA) or SmartLic® FirstLic® (Canada) Supplement is recommended.
