Dairy Farming Challenges

Dairy Farming Challenges

Are you looking to:

  • Reduce sorting

    Moist and liquid feeds help to make the feed ration more palatable. It also will in turn reduce competition during feeds.

  • Manage feed costs

    Moist and liquid feeds are a more cost effective feeding option in a mixed ration diet than dried feeds and have a lower carbon footprint.

  • Increase performance

    Highly palatable, moist and liquid feeds reduce sorting and promote intakes. Nutrients are more readily available and digestible to the animals which in turn improve condition and live weight gain. Farmers report a reduction in acidosis and lameness

  • Easier handling and feeding

    Moist and liquid feeds are easy to store and easily incorporated into rations

  • Increase intakes

    Rich in degradable protein, energy, minerals and fibre, and fully traceable, moist and liquid feeds offer quality, low-cost alternative feed ingredients. They are a good source of energy and protein and are highly palatable, which enhances dry matter intake.

  • Get a highly palatable feed

    Moist and liquid feeds are highly palatable and offer an excellent source of protein and energy for your feed. With digestible fiber they can be used as part of your forage replacement strategy
