Ask the following questions when determining what type of feed your cattle needs: What type of cattle do you own? Show cattle, dairy and beef cattle all have different nutritional needs. How old are the cattle/calves? Adult cattle have different nutritional needs than calves. What are the cattleâs overall feeding program? Pasture cattle (i.e., cattle that graze on pasture as a regular part of their feeding) will need mineral blocks or loose minerals to ensure complete nutrition. Are the cattle on pasture or dry lots? Pelletized feed works best for dry lots, while block feed is better for pasture.
