             The ruminants  have also a  limited capacity of daily feed intake  in volume and weight  and the day has we know  24 hours only  so the grain and fats overload is needed to concentrate ration with energy and protein , vits, etc to produce high levels of production  .  Unfortunely there is not possible to feed infinite quantity of  structural carbohidrates to high producin animals (45-50 lts daily ...

            The are many excelent products but finally the cheapest practice you can do is offer ad libitum a mix of 65-70% sodium bicarbonate 25% magnesium oxide and 5-10% calcium carbonate.

            we can feed whole cotton seed to ruminants at 2 kg/head/daily without problems  with gossipol ( no more than 1 kg if weather temperatures reach over 35ºC )
