THE LNS FAMILY SEPTEMBER NEWSLETTER

There's a little crispness in the morning air, the days are getting shorter, and here at Livestock Nutrition Supplies we couldn't be more excited for everything fall has in store. Before we dive in, we want to take a moment to say welcome.

To everyone who has joined our newsletter this month — welcome to the LNS family! We're so glad you're here. Whatever you raise and wherever you're located, our mission is the same for every one of you: to help your operation thrive with practical, trustworthy nutrition information. If you ever have a question about a product or your specific setup, don't hesitate to reach out — our team genuinely loves talking shop with our producers.

Here's a look at the educational posts we've published since our last newsletter. Browse the list below and click into whatever applies to your operation and species — and remember, you can always catch these the moment they go live by following us on Facebook:

As autumn settles in and pastures begin to slow down and go dormant, it's a great time to think about what's actually in your forage. As grass matures and growth slows, protein and energy content typically decline, fiber increases, and the overall nutritional value your animals are getting from pasture alone starts to drop — even when there's still plenty of grass out there to graze.

This is a normal seasonal shift, but it's an important one to plan for. A forage test is the best way to know exactly what your animals are working with this fall, and it can help you decide whether a protein or mineral supplement makes sense to help fill the gap as dormancy sets in. A little planning now can go a long way toward keeping body condition, growth, and reproduction on track through the cooler months ahead.

As always, if you'd like help interpreting a forage test or putting together a supplementation plan for your specific operation, we're happy to help — just give us a call or send us an email.
