Nutrition plays a much bigger role in cattle production than simply keeping cows in good condition. In this episode of Cattle USA Daily, Lauren sits down with Justin Ramirez to discuss fetal development, fetal programming, and how nutrition during pregnancy can influence a calf’s future. From the first trimester through calving, the cow’s nutritional status can affect muscle development, organ development, fat deposition, immunity and the calf’s ability to reach its genetic potential. Justin also breaks down how genetics and nutrition work together, why different stages of pregnancy require different nutritional strategies, and how producers can use tools like hay analysis, body condition scoring and close observation to make better decisions. The conversation highlights the importance of consistency, paying attention to the small details and building a trusted team around your operation.Connect with Justin:Email: howdy@primestocknutrition.comWebsite: primestocknutrition.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/justin-a-ramirez-msc-78aa1972/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JustinARamirezNutritionistLinks: CattleUSA Insurance - https://info.cattleusainsurance.com/l/1102253/2025-06-04/288f5m⁠CattleUSA Website - https://www.cattleusa.com/CattleUSA App IOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/cattleusa/id1673147759CattleUSA App Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.edgarmcbee.cusamobile&pcampaignid=web_shareFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/cattleusamediaInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/cattleusa.media/Subscribe to our newsletter - https://www.cattleusa.shop/products/cattleusa-drive-premium-daily-newsletter?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&brid=YWdncwFNXt0EmdzFy5cJJBp84J9gCattleUSA Media - https://www.cattleusamedia.com/Lauren’s Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/_laurenmoylan/Lauren’s Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@ShowboatmediacoThe Next Generation Podcast Website - https://www.thenextgenag.com/Key Takeaways:Feed and nutrition can account for 65–70% of expenses in a beef cattle operationFetal development begins long before a calf ever hits the groundNutrition during pregnancy can influence how much of a calf’s genetic potential is expressedThe first and last trimesters play particularly important roles in fetal developmentThe last trimester is critical for calf growth, development and colostrum qualityMaternal stress and poor nutrition can have consequences for calf healthGenetics and nutrition have to work together to maximize cattle performanceBreed differences should be considered when developing nutrition programsHay testing can help producers understand whether forage is meeting cattle requirementsGood nutrition and management ultimately come back to stewardship and taking care of the cattleChapters:01:35 Why Nutrition Matters to the Bottom Line04:10 Understanding Fetal Development07:05 How Nutrition Influences Genetic Potential10:00 Nutrition Through the Three Trimesters13:20 The Importance of the Last Trimester16:00 Maternal Stress & Calf Health19:00 Genetics + Nutrition22:00 Hay Testing & Understanding Forage Quality25:15 Feeding the Rumen Microbes28:00 Using Manure as a Nutritional Indicator30:00 Body Condition & Nutritional Management33:00 The Importance of Consistency36:00 Small Details Create a Domino Effect39:00 Knowing When to Ask for Help42:00 Final Thoughts on Stewardshipcattle nutrition, beef cattle nutrition, cattle feed, cattle feeding, fetal development, fetal programming, fetal nutrition, calf development, calf health, calf performance, genetic potential, cattle genetics, genetics and nutrition, cow nutrition, pregnant cow nutrition, cow-calf nutrition, maternal nutrition, maternal stress, first trimester, second trimester, third trimester, last trimester, colostrum quality, calf immunity, muscle development
