Mineral Mixture is a mixture of various major mineral & trace elements viz. calcium, phosphorous,
iron, zinc, magnesium etc. Remarkable difference in mineral contents of soil in hilly terrain, tribal
belt and coastal area is noted. Mineral content in soil has its effect on fodder and lastly on health
of milch animals and milk production. In order to maintain animal in good health, we have
supplemented mineral deficiencies by adding mineral mixture in cattle feed. Keeping mineral
deficiency issues in mind, mineral mixture powder plant at Chalthan have been made operational.
We have supplied 78060 Kg chelated mineral mixture to milk co-operatives. Generally, during
monsoon season, more number of milch animals gets infested with worm infestation. Keeping this
issue in mind, we have manufactured balanced cattle feed fortified with adequate dose of
Anathelmetic (De wormer) drugs and supplied it to DCS during August and September when
worm infestation in maximum. Digestibility of dry fodder like paddy straws can be enhanced by
Urea Treatment. |
