Minerals & Supplements
Most livestock are fed a forage based ration. Whether it is fresh or conserved, the mineral content of such forages does not generally meet the animals’ minimum dietary requirements. Modern grassland management further depresses the availability of minerals and trace elements, therefore, feeding supplements is an essential practice to optimise the performance of your stock.
Carrs Billington understand the importance of proper, high quality supplementation, targeting specific issues on farm, as a result we have a selection of products to offer that work with various farming practices and methods, so you can be sure to find and option that suits you and your stock.
