About Cattle Starter Pellet

Cow GraphicProduct Brochure

Cattle Starter Pellets are a high protein, moderate energy grain-based pellet designed primarily as an introduction for cattle prior to the finishing phase in the feedlot. Kojonup Feeds Starter Pellets contain a comprehensive macro-mineral, trace element and vitamin package to suit WA conditions. They can be fed in conjunction with a palatable roughage in the feedlot or used as a supplement in conjunction with pasture during backgrounding in the paddock. Once cattle have been introduced to grain-based rations on their path to finishing they must have continuous access. Roughage and potable water should be continuously available. All cattle on grain-based rations should be fully immunised against clostridial diseases.

Designed to introduce cattle to pellet feeding.

  • Our standard pellet size is 6mm. We also offer 4mm and 9mm by prior arrangement.
