The SWEETLIX 20% AN Protein Pressed Block delivers essential protein supplementation without urea. This supplement is ideal for livestock grazing on medium-quality pastures or consuming stored forages. Designed with 50% of NRC-recommended trace mineral fortification, this block provides balanced nutrients for maintenance situations. For higher production needs, its flexible formulation allows for easy pairing with a higher fortified mineral supplement. Convenient and effective, this protein pressed block supports body condition with ease and adaptability.

Feed at a rate of one block per 5 to 15 head. All animals should have equal access to blocks. Timid and smaller animals need their share. Place blocks where animals congregate. Locate blocks throughout the pasture at loafing, grazing and watering areas. Adequate distance must be maintained between blocks to prevent crowding - 10 feet minimum. Feed blocks continuously along with plentiful sources of forage and clean, fresh water. Animals should not run out of blocks. When a block is two-thirds consumed, provide a new block near it. Place very small pieces in a feed pan or trough to be cleaned up. Cattle should consume 1 to 2 pounds per head daily based on a 1,000-lb animal. Consumption of this block may vary depending upon animal body condition, quality and quantity of forages, seasonal weather conditions, and most importantly, feeding locations of blocks with respect to loafing, grazing, feeding and watering areas. If additional mineral and vitamin supplementation is desired, provide an appropriate SWEETLIX self-fed mineral supplement in addition to this supplement.
Following a 7 to 10 day acclimation period, average consumption should be 1 to 2 pounds for mature cattle with unrestricted forage supplies. Position the blocks 50 to 75 feet from loafing, feeding and watering areas. Some re-positioning of blocks may be necessary as animals become acclimated to the presence of the blocks. Move blocks closer to increase consumption; further away to decrease consumption. If over consumption occurs for more than two weeks and re-positioning of blocks does not correct the situation, remove blocks and evaluate the overall feeding program. DO NOT ALLOW STARVED ANIMALS FREE ACCESS TO THIS BLOCK.
