## Abstract

A complete ration, or diet, suitable for beef cattle in different fattening stages is provided, as well as a method for formulating the ration. All by-products of sugar manufacture are recycled and used to formulate the complete ration for beef cattle in different fattening stages, using sugarcane tip leaves and alkalized bagasse as raw materials, using molasses and corn flour as energy feed, using peanut bran, soybean residual, rapeseed meal, etc., as protein feed, using carbamide, dicalcium phosphate, limestone powder, bacteria strain and pre-mixture as other additives. The complete ration suitable for beef cattle in each growing stages can be flexibly formulated according to nutrients requirements of beef cattle in different growing stages. Comparing to the regular feed for the same fattening stage, the complete ration described can lead to a lower production cost and a lower ratio between feed and weight, and bring higher economic values.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A method for formulating a complete ration suitable for beef cattle in different fattening stages, wherein the complete ration includes the following materials: bagasse 15˜45 parts, sugarcane tip leaves 25˜70 parts, molasses 4˜18 parts, corn flour 1˜12 parts, legume by-product 4˜12 parts, rapeseed meal 4 ˜12 parts, residue 4 ˜12 parts, carbamide 0.1˜1.2 parts, dicalcium phosphate 0.4˜1.8 parts, limestone powder 0.4˜1.2 parts, bacteria strain 0.05˜0.6 part and pre-mixture 0.4˜1.2 parts, and all parts are parts by weight;
wherein the legume by-products are peanut bran or soybean residue;
wherein the residue is beer residue or cassava residue;
wherein the complete ration is prepared by the following steps:
(1) adjusting water content of bagasse to 55˜85%, immersing the bagasse in an alkaline solution for 15˜65 mins, and then squeezing it to obtain alkalized bagasse for use;
(2) filament-rubbing or cutting the sugarcane tip leaves into segments, adding the alkalized bagasse obtained in step (1), and mixing and stirring well to obtain a coarse feed;
(3) adding molasses, corn flour, peanut bran, soybean residue, rapeseed meal, beer residue or cassava residue, carbamide, dicalcium phosphate, limestone powder, strain and pre-mixture to the coarse feed obtained in step (2), and mixing well; and
(4) storing in a sealed bag for more than 10 days.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The formulating method of claim 1, wherein in step (1), the water content of the bagasse is adjusted to 60%˜80%.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The formulating method of claim 1, wherein in step (1), alkaline solution is sodium hydroxide solution, with a concentration of 3%˜8% by mass percent.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The formulating method of claim 1, wherein in step (1), the alkaline solution immersion is performed for 20-60 mins.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The formulating method of claim 1, wherein in step (1), the water content of the alkalized bagasse is 55%˜65%.
