P2632 Simple Ration Formulation: Pearson's Square
pearson s Square is a Simple , quick way tocalculate the amounts of feed necessary tomeet a nutrient requirement of livestockand other animals. This method is mosteffective when only two feeds are beingused. For example, when two grains aremixed for part of a total mixed Ration (TMR) or as a supplement to pasture feed-ing, pearson s Square can be used to deter-mine what quantity of each grain wouldbe needed to achieve a specific nutrientlevel in the mixture. The basic structure of a pearson sSquare can be seen in Figure 1. In thisexample, soybean meal and corn are beingused to meet the crude protein (CP)requirement of a lactating dairy cow. Thenutrient requirement, in this case CP,could also be energy, total digestible nutri-ents (TDN), fat, and so on, depending onthe information needed by the user.
