Forage samples were collected from 4 different locations, i.e. pasture, palm oil estate, teak wood plantation and idle lands. Samples were then analyzed for crude nutrient (CP, CF, ash and DM) and macro mineral content of Ca, P, Mg, K, Na and S.

The feeding trial was conducted for 6 weeks by using 9 Cross-Simmentals heifers subjected to 3 treatments, i.e. P1: only grass without supplementation, P2: grass + LMF and P3: grass + concentrates. Parameters measured included: body weight gain, feed intake, FCR, feed cost and net return. Results showed that the available forages contained relatively high fiber and low DM, CP and minerals. Nutrient content of CP, CF and ash varied widely, from 10.4 to 18.2%, 30.2 to 45.5% and 8.8 to 12.1%, respectively. Minerals of Na, K, Mg and Ca were varied from 11-18 g/kg, 8-13 g/kg, 8-10 g/kg and 7-8 g/kg DM, respectively, while P were found the lowest, varied from 0.5 to 1.3 g.kg DM. Heifers supplemented with LMF (P2) showed higher body weight gain, FCR and net return than those of fed only grass (P1). The best biological performances were shown by heifers supplemented with concentrates (P3), but the most profitable feeding strategy was by supplementation of heifers with local mineral formulas.
