How to Choose the Right Cattle Feed for Your Farm
Picking the right feed is the single biggest factor in milk yield and weight gain. Here is what to look for.
The feed you choose decides your cattle's health, milk yield and your profit. Yet many farmers buy on price alone — and pay for it later in poor growth and vet bills.
1. Check the protein and energy balance
Dairy cattle need balanced protein and energy. Too little protein lowers milk; too much without energy is wasted money. Always ask for the nutritional breakdown of any feed.
2. Insist on lab-tested batches
Adulteration is common in the market. Lab-tested feed protects you from fillers like sand, urea and low-grade by-products. Every Prominent Feed batch is quality-checked before dispatch.
3. Match feed to your animal's stage
- Calves need starter feed high in digestible protein.
- Milking cows need higher energy and calcium.
- Fattening cattle need a different energy profile again.
4. Buy from a trusted source
