Salt is a vital nutrient in animal diets. We cover the role of feed-grade salt, mineral licks, and the purity standards that keep livestock healthy.
Why animals need salt
Sodium and chloride are essential nutrients for livestock, supporting nerve function, hydration, and appetite. Feed-grade salt is added to rations and offered as free-choice licks to keep animals healthy and productive.
Mineral licks and blocks
Compressed salt licks and blocks provide a controlled, weather-resistant way for grazing animals to self-regulate their salt intake. They are often fortified with trace minerals such as iodine, cobalt, and selenium.
Purity and safety for feed
Feed-grade salt must be free from harmful contaminants and meet consistent purity so it is safe for animal consumption. Controlled sizing and low insolubles ensure it mixes evenly into compound feed.
Dependable agricultural supply
Feed mills and farms need reliable, cost-effective salt in bulk. Sourcing feed-grade salt directly from the manufacturer provides the consistent quality and volumes agriculture depends on.
