Effect of Bovatec and Ralgro implants on finishing steer performance

Lomas, Lyle W.
Cattle fed Bovatec consumed 17.4% less feed and were 17.7% more efficient

than controls, with no effect on gain. Ralgro implants improved gain 12% and

feed efficiency 6.9%, with no effect on feed intake. Bovatec and Ralgro

combined had an additive effect on feed efficiency.
