GOAT FEEDS
Despite similarities to sheep & cattle, goats exhibit significant
differences in grazing habits, physical activities, water requirement,
feed selection, milk composition, carcass composition, metabolic
disorders and parasites. The Nutrient requirement of goats may therefore
justifiably be treated separately from those of other ruminants.” (NRC
1981) These facts have been the basis on which the under mentioned
feeds have been designed, and the ingredients chosen
[702] DENGIE DAIRY GOAT
PELLETS – 4mm
Protein 18.0% Oil
5.6% Fibre 14.5% Ash 8.6% ME(rum) 11.5mj/kg DM
A superior product designed in conjunction with Dengie Crop Driers –
specifically for the Otley College of Agriculture, and other commercial
producers of Goats Milk and Cheese – with Charnwood licensed as sole
manufacturers. The main ingredient, Dengie Dried Lucerne is a forage
with the nutritive value of concentrates, but without the problems
associated with concentrate feeding. This helps to maintain
acetate:proprionate ratios in correct balance, ensuring high butterfat
yields. The production of this ration in pellet form stops selective
eating of individual ingredients, thus ensuring that the goat receives a
scientifically balanced diet.
[4410] MILKING
GOAT COARSE MIX
Protein 16.5% Oil 3.8% Fibre 9.5% Ash 7.0% ME(rum) 12.5mj/kg DM
A coarse mix designed specifically for dairy producers, where quality of
product is paramount. This ration has consistently provided top yields
of top quality milk for customers supplying to Marks & Spencer and other
similar outlets. Extreme care in the choice of ingredients ensures
complete palatability and, therefore, production.
[405] COARSE
GOAT MIX - MOLASSED
Protein 16.0% Oil 3.9% Fibre 6.5% Ash 6.9% ME(rum) 12.8mj/kg DM
A blend of top quality ingredients, chosen for the nutrients which they
provide – and for their palatability. Lightly sprayed with Molasses and
Refined Soya Oil to ensure a sweet, dust-free mix.
[410] COARSE GOAT MIX –
DRY
Protein 15.0% Oil 2.6% Fibre 7.4% Ash 6.2% ME(rum) 12.4mj/kg DM
An alternative Coarse Mix for those who wish not to feed molasses. The
nutrients present in both Coarse Goat Mixes ensure that goats grow well
– and milk well.
