Lab for cattle
From the KNF library
The LAB fact sheet says LAB culture is used for livestock production as well as plants. (Student's Manual, Basic Course, p. 13) The dilution it gives is for plants: 1:1,000 in water. (Student's Manual, Basic Course, p. 15)
The manual lists OHN as an aid to digestion and metabolization. (Pure KNF Manual, p. 31) Cho writes that mineral water made with IMO #4 and given to livestock assists healthy growth of pigs and chickens. (Cho, Theory, p. 63)
The one animal dosing example is for chickens:
- Seawater at 1:10 to 1:15, brown rice vinegar at 1:200, and water-soluble calcium at 1:500, every other day. (Cho, Recipe, p. 82)
Those figures are for chickens in summer feather loss. They are not cattle doses. (Cho, Recipe, p. 82)
The library gives no cattle amounts, timing, or method for LAB, OHN, vinegar, seawater or FPJ. It says nothing on FPJ for animals at all. Bring the herd size and current feed to a live show so Drake can look at the setup.
