In which ways do you provide cattle with feed additives under extensive/semiextensive production systems?

i have been recently visiting extensive dairy cows' farms where there were no precise control of animal feeding. Major part of the ration was based on grazing pasturelands, with some addition of silage (either corn or grass) and/or 2-4 kg of concentrates. These production systems are different to the most widespread ones (intensive ones with precise animal feeding). Do you have experience regarding tips/strategies to provide with feed additives to cows reared under extensive/semiextensive systems?
