In the past, feed played a critical role in maintaining the health and well-being of cattle. Ranchers and farmers provided hay, silage, and concentrates as essential dietary components. Veterinarians and nutritionists ensured optimal nutrition. Feeding involved carefully managing the intake of these feedstuffs to promote growth, maximize milk production, and maintain overall cattle health. Feed transportation and storage were integral, as were regulatory frameworks that ensured feed safety and animal welfare.
