Feeding Guidelines
Mi-Feed Dairy Pellets are to be fed in conjunction with pasture and/or hay.
Ensure animal husbandry procedures (e.g., vaccinations, parasite control) are completed prior to grain feeding livestock. Consult your veterinarian for advice.
Provide cattle with ad-lib palatable hay prior to introduction of grain feed, do not provide hungry/starving stock with unlimited access to grain.
Feed up to 10 kg per day to lactating dairy cows, split between two feeds.
Introduce new feed gradually to allow the rumen microbes time to adapt and to help avoid the development of acidosis (grain poisoning). Gradually increase feeding rates during the first 2-3 weeks of lactation starting with 4kg/head/day split between 2 feeds.
It is highly recommended to use a transition feed 4 weeks before calving to help reduce digestive issues and some metabolic diseases such as milk fever when cows commence milking.
Ensure fresh, cool, clean water is available at all time
