Beef Cattle Nutrition Series
Part 3: Nutrient Requirement Tables
Shane Gadberry
Assistant Professor - Nutrition

University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture
This report was prepared from information

contained in Nutrient Requirements of Beef Cattle,
Seventh Revised Edition, issued in 1996 (1996 NRC)
under the direction of the Subcommittee on Beef
Cattle Nutrition, Committee on Animal Nutrition,
Board on Agriculture and National Research
Council (NRC).
Since the publication of Nutrient Require
ments of Beef Cattle, Sixth Revised Edition (1984),
research efforts have been directed towards defining
the impact of beef cattles biological, production and
environmental diversities and variations on
nutrient utilization and requirements. The 1996
NRC edition utilized these results to evaluate
mathematical modeling in concert with
experimental data to more clearly define factors
that relate to nutrient requirements of beef cattle.
Some of these factors are: breed effects, sex, body
weight, body condition, milk composition and yield,
compensatory growth, environmental variation,
ionophores and implants, forage availability and
microbial yield.
Software is included with the 1996 NRC
publication to generate nutrient requirement tables
and evaluate rations based on factors that influence
nutrient requirements. Simple tables of dietary
requirements cannot do as good a job of accounting
for animal, feed, and environmental variations as
the NRCs model. In many situations, however, the
dietary nutrient requirement tables in this
publication should be sufficient. Tables 4 to 12 were
compiled from (1) requirement tables in the 1996
NRC report, (2) data generated with the 1996 NRC
software and (3) additional calculations. The tables
were designed to give guidelines for formulating
cattle diets and for simple diagnostic or teaching
purposes for the most common classes of beef cattle.
In the 1996 NRC report, metabolizeable

protein (MP) replaces crude protein (1984 NRC). MP
is defined as the true protein absorbed by the
intestine, supplied by microbial protein and
undegraded intake protein. Daily crude protein
requirements per animal reported in Tables 4
through 12 were computed as pounds of MP
required daily divided by 0.67. Animal weights in
the tables are shrunk body weights. Shrunk
body weight is 96 percent of full body weight.
Mineral Requirements
At least 17 minerals are required by beef

cattle. Macrominerals required include calcium,
magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium and
chlorine, and sulfur. The microminerals required are
chromium, cobalt, copper, iodine, iron, manganese,
molybdenum, nickel, selenium and zinc. Other
minerals including arsenic, boron, lead, silicon and
vanadium have been shown to be essential for one
or more animal species, but there is no evidence
that these minerals are of practical importance in
beef cattle.
Calcium and phosphorus requirements are
shown in Tables 4 to 12. Calcium requirements are
similar to those in the 1984 NRC report because
new information is not sufficient to justify a change.
Calcium requirements are adjusted to 50 percent
true absorption. Phosphorus requirements for
maintenance are lower in the 1996 NRC report, and
the phosphorus requirements have been adjusted to
68 percent true absorption.
The requirements and maximum tolerable
concentrations for other minerals are shown in
Table 1. For certain minerals, requirements are not
listed because research data are inadequate to
determine requirements.

A number of elements that are not required (or

at least required only in very small amounts) can
cause toxicity in beef cattle. Maximum tolerable
concentrations of several elements known to be
toxic to cattle are given in Table 2. The maximum
tolerable concentration for a mineral has been

defined as that dietary level that, when fed for a
limited period, will not impair animal performance
and should not produce unsafe residues in human
food derived from the animal (1980 NRC: p. 3).

Vitamin Requirements
The vitamin most likely to be deficient in beef

cattle diets is vitamin A. Vitamin A can be stored in
the liver to prevent vitamin A deficiency. No more
than 2 to 4 months of protection from stored
vitamin A can be expected.
Beef cattle requirements for vitamin A are

1,000 IU/lb dry feed for beef feedlot cattle; 1,270
IU/lb dry feed for pregnant beef heifers and cows;
and 1,770 IU/lb dry feed for lactating cows and
breeding bulls. These requirements are the same as
those given in the 1984 NRC report.
Vitamin D is synthesized by beef cattle

exposed to sunlight or fed sun-cured forages.
Therefore, animals rarely require vitamin D
supplementation. The vitamin D requirement of
beef cattle is 125 IU/lb dry diet.
Determining vitamin E requirements of
ruminants is difficult because of its inter
relationships with other dietary components.
Vitamin E requirements depend on concentrations
of antioxidants, sulfur-containing amino acids, and
selenium in the diet. Vitamin E is not stored in the
body in large concentrations. The vitamin E
requirement for beef cattle has not been established
but is estimated to be between 7 and 27 IU/lb dry
diet for young calves.
Energy and Protein Requirements
In most beef production situations, cattle are

fed to appetite with either high forage (stocker,
backgrounding, cow-calf) or high-grain diets
(growing and finishing cattle) and are
supplemented to support the energy allowable
production, based on group averages. The
requirement tables were designed with that
in mind.
Tables 4 to 12 show energy, protein, calcium,
phosphorus and vitamin A requirements as
1) nutrient density of the diet on a dry-matter basis
and 2) daily nutrient requirements per animal in
pounds, Mcals or IUs.
Diet NEm (net energy for maintenance) was
used to predict DMI. All diet density requirements
reflect these predicted DMI and tabular feed NE
values. In situations where the predicted DMI is
overestimated, the diet density requirement is
underestimated and adjustments should be made in
the diet.
Explanation of Nutrient Requirement Tables
Mature Cows
Table 4 for mature cows includes the nutrient
requirements of cows for months 1 to 12 since
calving. Requirements are shown for mature cow
weights (one month after calving) of 900, 1,000,
1,100, 1,200, 1,300 and 1,400 pounds and three
levels of peak milk production (10, 20 and 30
pounds) during a 29-week lactation for each weight
class. The milk production levels cover the range of

expected peak milk given for 28 breeds of beef
cattle. Table 3 provides information for predicting
peak milk production of beef cows.

Nutrient Requirements of Beef Cattle.
Calves born from 1,200 pound cows were

assumed to weigh 80 pounds. A similar ratio of
calf:cow birth weights was used for the other cow
weight classes. Requirements are generated for
each of the 12 months of the reproductive cycle.
Month 1 of the reproductive cycle is the first month
after calving. Within each weight class, nutrient
requirements are the same for all cows during
months 7 through 12 regardless of peak milk level.
Expected milk yield is shown for months 1 through
6 since calving.
Table 5 includes the nutrient requirements to
increase the body condition score (BCS) of beef cows
from a BCS 4 to a BCS 5 during the last 90 days
of pregnancy.
Table 6 provides the nutrient requirements to
increase the BCS of thin, open, mature cows. The
nutrient requirements are based on increasing body
condition by one score over a 30- or 60-day period.
If the desired body condition change is greater
than 1, multiply the amount of body condition score
change desired by either 30 or 60 days, depending
on the selected plane of nutrition. For example, if
increasing BCS from 3 to 6 and using the 30-day
nutrient requirements, it will take 90 days
(3 BCSs x 30 days) to achieve a BCS 6 at this level
of nutrients in the diet.
Two-Year-Old Heifers
Table 7 for two-year-old heifers includes the

requirements for animals with mature weights of
900 to 1,400 pounds. The table was generated for
heifers with 20 pounds of peak milk production.
Actual body weights are shown for months 1

through 12 for all weight classes. Calf:cow birth
weight ratios are the same as mature cows.
Bred Heifers
Table 8 for bred heifers includes the

requirements for animals with mature weights of
900 to 1,400 pounds. Nutrient requirements are
shown for 9 months. Month 1 is the first month of
pregnancy. Target ADG and body weights are shown
for each month from breeding to calving. The target
ADG for growth was computed as target calving
weight minus target breeding weight divided by 280
days of gestation. Target calving weight is 80
percent of mature weight and target puberty weight
is 60 percent of mature weight (65 percent for
Bos indicus).
Growing Steer, Heifer and Bull Calves
Table 9 shows nutrient requirements for

growing steer and heifer calves (less than 12
months of age, implanted with a growth stimulant).
Requirements are shown for calves with expected
finishing weights of 1,100 and 1,200 lb (28 percent
body fat) or maturity (replacement heifers).
Table 10 shows nutrient requirements of
growing bull calves (less than 12 months of age)
with a mature weight of 2,000 pounds.
maturity (replacement yearling heifers). Within

each final weight, the weight ranges given are 55 to
80 percent of final weight to reflect typical feeding
group averages. Diet density requirements are
given for the diet energy allowable ADG rather than
a specific ADG. It is assumed that cattle are fed a
particular diet free-choice and that only
replacement heifers are fed for a target ADG. The
user can estimate the requirements for a particular
ADG by finding the nearest value in the table.
Yearling and Breeding Bulls
Tables 11 and 12 show nutrient requirements

of bulls. Table 11 shows requirements for yearling
bulls in early stages of development that weigh less
than 50 percent of their expected mature weight. To
use Table 11, multiply the bulls mature weight by
0.60 to determine the animals weight class at
finishing. Nutrient requirements for bulls that
weigh more than 50 percent of their mature weight
are shown in Table 12.
