Energy Feeds
High Starch Pellet
Nutrinza’s High Starch Pellet is a grain pellet and an excellent source of energy.
Nutritional Benefits
The high maize content makes it an ideal slow release starch option during lactation. Providing adequate amounts of starch promotes rumen bacterial growth that will enhance forage digestibility, rumen contractions and subsequent feed intakes. It is an ideal choice to increase and maintain peak production during spring. It is pelletised, reducing wastage and improve flow in silos.
Feeding Recommendations
Due to the high starch content a gradual introduction is required. Once animals have adapted to a higher starch diet, the High Starch Pellet can be fed at between 2kg to 4kg per cow per day to maximise production. Due to its low protein content it must be properly complemented with a protein source from pasture/other protein feed options, as well as fibre.
