Summary

This project evaluated the effect of Nutricharge on weight loss during long distance transport and subsequent recovery of weight loss following this long distance transport. The project provided no evidence that the use of Nutricharge prior to transport of cattle over long distances resulted in any reduction in weight loss or improved recovery of weight loss after transport.
