Four Reasons Preconditioning Makes ‘Cents’


Cow/calf producers can add signifi cant value by implementing a preconditioning program, which can pay off all the way through to the feedlot.


I


T IS COMMON FOR PRODUCERS TO WANT TO CAPITALIZE ON TIMES OF HIGH CATTLE PRICES as quickly as possible, and it is no different for the valuable calf crop this


year. Producers are gearing up to cash in on their investment in produc- ing and raising a healthy calf but there are a few reasons to slow down and evaluate whether this is the most profi table path. Could waiting a few months longer realize additional payoff? “Preconditioning calves is one way that a farm or ranch can really add


value, whether those cattle are staying on the farm or moving into a stocker or feedlot scenario,” says Chris Forcherio, Ph.D., beef research manager at the Purina Animal Nutrition Center. “The producer implementing a preconditioning program may receive a higher premium and no matter where the calf goes after that, the opportunity for improved health and performance should be adding value from that program.” Preconditioning, which commonly includes a vaccination, nutritional


and management program to help calves through a stressful timeframe, can be an investment, but it can be an investment with potentially bigger payoffs down the road. Here are 4 reasons preconditioning makes ‘cents’:


1. Improved health As many producers know, weaning can be a very stressful time for


calves. Stress may cause them to go off feed, become immunocompromised and more susceptible to disease, or even result in death. “Calves that are preconditioned with an effective vaccination program


and started on a high-quality nutrition program may be better equipped to handle this period of stress,” says Forcherio. Research shows that preconditioned calves may have a signifi cant


reduction in treatment costs, as much as $29.50 per head, as well as 3.1 percent lower mortality rate in comparison to non-preconditioned calves. Investing in animal health with preconditioning can help cattle get through a stressful period with potentially less treatment cost and more calves down the road.


2. Additional weight gain and increased feed effi ciency Selling calves later, after going through a preconditioning program


(45 days or more), will have added weight versus calves that are sold at weaning. Additionally, research shows that preconditioned calves have 7.2 percent better feed effi ciency.
