- Feeding Directions
The Energy Booster 100 formula has been proven as the most palatable rumen-inert fat and can be fed in a total mixed ration or in a grain mix. Energy Booster 100 can even be fed as a top dress.
The recommended feeding rate is 0.25 lb to 1.5 lb per cow per day depending on stage of lactation and milk production. The following table will assist in choosing the right amount of Energy Booster 100 to feed.

- Restrict the use of free fats (such as tallow & grease) to 1.0% or less of the dry matter.
- Restrict the amount of fat from oilseeds (cottonseed & soybeans) and distillers grains to less than 1.0% of the dry matter.
- Use Energy Booster 100 to add up to 3.0% fat on a dry matter basis in the diet.
- Keep total fat concentration in the diet at 7.0% dry matter or below.
- Start feeding Energy Booster 100 at 0.5 lb per cow per day three weeks prior to calving then increase as necessary during the first weeks of lactation as appetite and intake increase.
