Overview

Cane molasses is a highly palatable liquid that provides a great source of energy from fast-fermenting sugars. Suitable for horses, dairy and beef cattle, young stock, goats and sheep.

Benefits?

Drives Intake: makes unpalatable feed ingredients more appealing, leading to higher total feed intake.

 

Increase Yields: ensures a proper balance between quickly digested energy (like cereals) and forages that have low protein content.

 

Reduce Costs: an economical alternative to using low-protein dry feeds.

 

Reduce Ration Sorting and Minimis Dust: this ensures livestock get a more consistent, balanced ration, lowering their risk of acidosis and boosting feed efficiency. The reduction in dust also cuts down on feed waste, makes the working environment more pleasant, and encourages animals to eat more.

Easy to store, No Processing: being a free-flowing liquid, it offers convenient storage and transport.
