Molatek Molasses Meal (40kg)

ADVANTAGES:

• • Given the synergistic effect of sugar with other starches in increasing animal production it is a good replacement for 10 – 20% of grain in rations.

• • Can provide some of the fiber needed in rations when roughage is in short supply.

• • A rich source of minerals, trace elements and especially B vitamins in a highly absorbable form.

• • Easily mixed ensuring high-quality molasses in a manageable form.

• • Reduces the dustiness of the diet, therefore increasing feed intake.

• • Serves as a good binding agent when making pellets.

• • Molatek Molasses Meal (40kg) increases feed intake due to palatability and improved feed texture resulting in increased production.

• • Has no negative impact on rumen pH as in the case of starch.

• • Increases fatty acid production in the rumen resulting in more energy available for production.

• • Increases microbial protein production resulting in more protein being available for milk, meat and wool production.

• • An excellent energy source on pastures/veld because it has a lower pasture replacement effect than grain.

• • Prevents dry gallsickness.

• • Two kg per horse per day, together with good quality pasture or roughage, supplies an excellent energy ration.

• • On poor quality pasture or roughage, provide half a kilogram of sunflower or soya bean oil cake in addition to the 2 kg of Molatek Molasses Meal (40kg) per day to help supplement protein deficiencies.

Cattle, Sheep and Goat Feedlots:

• • Use up to 24% Molatek Molasses Meal in cattle rations and up to 15% in sheep and goat rations to make it more palatable, contribute to the energy and bind dust.

• • Rations mixed with Molatek Molasses Meal assist in the adaptation of animals.

Dairy farms:

• • Up to 15% Molatek Molasses Meal can be mixed into dairy cattle and calf rations.

• • Makes rations mixed on-farm more palatable ensuring higher intakes.

• • Molatek Molasses Meal-based rations can largely satisfy the energy requirements of young animals.

Game:

• • Include 6 to 12% Molatek Molasses Meal in complete and semi-complete game diets to increase palatability and therefore intake.

Production and Maintenance Licks:

• • Molatek Molasses Meal can replace grain completely in all on-farm lick mixes.

On-Farm Feed Pelleting:

• • Molatek Molasses Meal can be included at 4 – 10% in the pelleting process as a binding agent.
