Description
Bentonite – Granular 5Kg
Feeding Recommendations:
Bentonite allows improved adaption of cattle and sheep to high concentrate diets, and prevention of accidosis caused by dietary or climatic variability.
This product should be included at 40Kg/tonne of the total starter ration to enable adaption to a high concentrate finisher diet (>70% grain) within 3 weeks. Thereafter a level of 10-20Kg/tonne should be used to protect against acidosis caused by dietary or climatic variability. This product may be safely fed until slaughter.
