About the Pearson Square Method

The **Pearson Square** is a simplified method for solving a two-variable equation to find the proportions of two ingredients needed to obtain a specific nutrient concentration.

When to use this tool:

  • When you have two feed sources with known protein contents.
  • When you need to hit a specific target protein percentage (e.g., 16% for growing calves).
  • To minimize waste by not over-feeding expensive protein supplements.

💡 Pro Tip
