TMR RATION - MINERALS

Many times in the past, we have expressed an opinion on how important we feel the role of minerals are on farms. With so many farmers now on a TMR type system it is essential that minerals are added to the mix if they are not being put into the blend or straights.

It is so easy to try and save money by cutting intakes of minerals but it is false economy. A lactating cow needs a minimum of 150 - 200 gms of minerals per day. This means a 100 cow herd will need 10 - 20 kgs per day every day, even if you are feeding a compound in the parlour.

You could be susceptible to a whole host of problems like milk fever, grass staggers, copper and zinc deficiencies, overall cow health etc, etc if you do not feed the correct level of minerals. We are specialists in providing 'custom' minerals where your own particular make up is required. Provided it is ordered in a minimum of 1 tonne lots (40 x 25kgs) we are happy to quote you on any type of mineral you care to ask for - please ring we are sure you will find us very competitive.
