Cobalt sulphate powder mixing.

[Stw88]

Found a pot of cobalt sulphate at the back of the cupboard and going to try giving a batch of lambs a dose to see if it makes a difference. Anyone know What is the mixing rate as the label has faded. ?

Was just going to add that we used to spray it on grass in the sixties and seventies and by mistake was delivered in a mineral paper bag one time. German cattlemen used it as sprinkle on minera on silagel and killed 9 head of cattle so as above it needs to highly diluted. Huge dispute with firm that supplied it which was never settled . It can be highly poisonous in its undiluted form.
