 CRYSTAL CLEAR ECONOMYX® is a free software program based on a computer spreadsheet
format. The program provides projections that will help you make informed
economic decisions when evaluating a supplement program, and not simply
comparing one product to another.
CRYSTAL CLEAR ECONOMYX® helps producers evaluate all of the different costs associated with a supplementation program, including labor and equipment costs. It’s an economic tool that fairly compares different supplementation programs by accounting for input costs that are sometimes overlooked or previously difficult to calculate.

Once the program is launched, an Excel pop up window will indicate that the file contains Macros. Click on “Enable Macros”. Macros must be enabled in order for the software to calculate properly.
Windows XP Users: If the Macros pop-up window does not appear you will need to change your security settings. Under Tools, select Macros, then Security and change the setting to Medium. You will need to save the file and re-open it. The Macros window should now appear. |
| Step 4: |
The program can be saved to your computer at any time to store your results or keep a copy of the program for future use. |
| Step 5: |
As the CCE program begins, you will find data already entered into the software. This is intended as a guide and can be cleared to enter your own data. If you would like to use the exiting data as a reference, simply type over the inputs, rather than clearing all of the information. |
| Step 6: |
You are now ready to make Crystal Clear comparisons between livestock supplement programs. |
