Rite-Lix Low Moisture Supplement Blocks
Controlled, continuous, cost-efficient nutrient delivery.
Healthy cattle require a balanced and consistent intake of nutrients. Rite-Lix low moisture blocks are proven to attract cattle more consistently than conventional supplementation methods, and due to their hardness they cannot be bitten, chewed or over consumed.
Cattle lick Rite-Lix blocks periodically throughout the day, ensuring a limited and consistent intake. Typical consumption is from 125 to 500 grams per head per day, depending on forage quality and animal size.
Low-moisture supplement blocks help increase forage or pasture utilization in all cattle. The licking action also increases saliva which aids in gut health.
