At Five Star Cooperative, we know the hard work it takes to raise strong, healthy cattle. That’s why we provide a full line of high-quality cattle feed and essential mineral supplements to support every stage of your operation.
Whether you’re caring for newborn calves or preparing steers for market, our products are built to deliver the nutrition your animals need to grow, thrive, and perform—helping beef producers across North Iowa improve herd health, daily weight gain, and overall profitability.
Every stage of a cow’s life requires different nutrients. From young calves to finishing steers, our goal is to deliver feed that matches each phase perfectly. That means balanced energy, protein, fiber, and essential vitamins and minerals in every ration.
We also know no two herds are the same. That’s why we offer a range of cattle feed options to meet your specific goals, forage base, and management style.
A strong start means a stronger finish. Our calf feeds support early growth and rumen development, setting your herd up for success. Both products are rich in essential nutrients to support immune health and early muscle development.
Palatable and nutritious creep feed to encourage early intake and weight gain.
Balanced starter feed for high growth rates and excellent feed efficiency.
As calves grow, their diet needs to change. Our grower feeds provide the right balance of protein, energy, and nutrients for healthy frame development. These feeds help support long-term productivity and market readiness.
