Managing Winter Pastures: Don't Let Dry, Frosted Feed Slow Your Stock Down
When pastures go dry and frosted, feed quality drops fast. Mature, frosted winter pasture is high in non-digestible fiber (NDF) and low in protein and energy. Without the right balance, the rumen slows to a crawl, stock can't process enough grass, and energy intake drops right off when cold weather demands it most.
During this stage of the season, watch out for:
- Weight Loss & Loss of Body Condition
- Slow Rumen Passage
- Protein Deficiencies
- Ewe/Cow Pregnancy Toxaemia
- Poor Milk Production Heading Into Spring
Prevention & Management Tips
- Supplement Rumen with Urea/Protein: Dry, frosted feed lacks crude protein. Providing a high-protein lick (like urea or protein meal blocks) feeds the rumen microbes so they can digest tough fiber faster and increase total pasture intake.
- Watch Energy Needs in Cold Snap Weather: Frosted pastures don't provide fast energy. When maintenance energy needs spike during cold weather, back up dry feed with high-energy supplements (like cereal grain or quality hay) for stock in high-demand stages like late pregnancy.
- Keep Clean Water Flowing: Stock on dry pasture and mineral licks need double the water. Cold mornings can freeze troughs or slow stock drinking, leading to reduced intake and impaction risk.
- Maintain Trace Mineral Intake: Winter pastures often lack key minerals like phosphorus, sulfur, and trace elements required for microbial health and fetal development. Keep balanced winter licks available.
Drop in to the store or give us a call to chat about winter lick options, feed testing, feed budgeting or getting the right protein blocks for your stock.
