Umbarger Payload is built for cattle that are ready to work. It bridges the gap between early development feeds and full finishing rations by delivering controlled energy, balanced protein, and effective fiber to support steady weight gain without sacrificing structure or freshness.

Payload excels as a daily driver feed for show cattle that need to add mass and power while maintaining a clean, athletic look. Its formulation allows feeders to fine-tune programs through supplements rather than constantly changing base feeds—making it an ideal foundation for customized grower and finisher strategies.

Because Payload is not overly aggressive, it gives cattle the ability to handle higher intake levels while staying sound and adaptable as they progress toward show or market endpoints.


Key Benefits

  • Supports consistent average daily gain (ADG)

  • Encourages muscle development and body power

  • Balanced energy to avoid cattle getting overly fat or stale

  • Works as a base ration that pairs well with supplements

  • Smooth transition product from grower to finisher phases

  • Ideal for program consistency and feed efficiency

Choose Payload if:

  • Cattle are past the creep or early grower stage

  • You need reliable gain and muscle expression

  • You want a base feed that can be dialed up or down

  • You plan to layer supplements to fine-tune finish

Payload is not intended for:

  • Young calves just starting on feed

  • Breeding stock or maintenance-only rations

  • Situations where minimal energy intake is required

(In those cases, a developer or breeder-focused feed is more appropriate.)


Payload is a performance-driven grower/finisher feed designed to deliver consistent daily gain, muscle development, and body shape while maintaining structural correctness. It serves as a reliable base ration for cattle entering the push phase of their feeding program.
