It’s a
fact...livestock absorb more
phosphorus from Ultra-Phos.
More phosphorus absorbed means stronger bones |
| In turkey trials, only 15 pounds per ton of MCP increased bone phosphorus content over DCP by 43%! Turkey raisers report remarkable results when Ultra-Phos is fed. It helped maintain leg strength when raising 40-pound toms.

More phosphorus absorbed means better feed efficiency |
| The performance of 500 hogs were compared when fed MCP and DCP rations. MCP increased daily gain by 6% and feed efficiency by 11%. The added profit was $5.40 per hog!

 |
More phosphorus absorbed means less phosphorus in manure |
| It makes sense — if swine digest more phosphorus — less phosphorus ends up in manure. This is a big plus for swine and poultry producers who have to meet new regulations in spreading animal waste.

Low-iron content in Ultra-Phos is a big plus |
| One of the improved properties of Ultra-Phos is an extremely low iron content which is a plus for livestock producers. It is a known fact that iron (FePO4) is poorly digested by livestock and can prevent the uptake of other important nutrients. Ultra-Phos has 60% less iron than other feed phosphates. |
