Been on it 4 years now, seems too make stuff shift. 3 ingredients, no filler. It’s non mineralised either though, that’s the biggest PITA about it. They tend too set their price and stick with it pretty well. Doesn’t fluctuate too much.

Just been sent this. Anyone user ACT blocks?

Just ordered off Midlands feeds 16% protein £255 delivered .

I’ve used a fair bit of this over the last few years. We did a bit of a comparison with it against some premium beef nuts and guess what they did better on? That’s a few different batches too.
Been feeding some this time with it and they haven’t done as well but they are younger cattle and didn’t get as much feed early on. I think it’s starchy which puts weight on for us. Be interesting to see if anyone else has any ratings on it

Makes you wonder what they put in proper nuts that you cant see. I just use an ordinary 16%,but i never think the stock do very well on it.

I think the same. A neighbour was washing his wagon out after taking store cattle to the mart and it was full of sand. He’s not bought any cake since off that firm and just buys a blend off a farm now. Filler

Barley with a bit of protein and fibre does a better job. Not everyone can handle it all though

Does anyone use NWF super rearer 16 nuts? How do you find it?

No it’s not Davidson’s are usually a bit cheaper so I would think they might possibly manage under £300 knowing them

 

[thorpe]

talking as as a manily arable man if its under 300 it aint got much heat in it!
