How do you manage Riomax tub consumption? | #6 | THAT RANCHING PODCAST

In this episode of That Ranching Podcast, Trevor Greenfield and Daryl Paskewitz answer a practical question many producers have: how do you manage consumption of Riomax lick tubs? They explain how intake naturally varies depending on animal size, stage of production, and forage quality. A cow in late gestation or early lactation will have different nutritional demands than a dry cow, and consumption will reflect those needs. They also address concerns around higher-than-expected intake, noting that it’s often a sign of mineral deficiencies or lower-quality feed rather than a problem with the tub itself. With real-world ranch examples, the conversation helps producers better interpret what intake patterns are telling them and manage tubs more strategically.
