Bag Mix Formula

We have developed formula for water supplementation using on site bag mixing. The process is simple and avoids the costs associated with factory premixing of formula. The formula are based on mixing lots of 1000 litres and use whole bag ratios for simplicity. For example a suitable formula uses 2 bags of Urea, 1 bag of Urea Phosphate and 1 bag of Tech grade Ammonium Sulphate per 1000 l water. This gives a solution similar to UPRO Orange at a much lower cost.Simple variations to the ratio are use...

A safe source of urea

In Solution U-Phos A slow release urea and soluble phosphorus This compound has unique properties that make it highly desirable in the formulation of soluble supplements and licks. Urea Phosphate is a stable combination of urea and phosphorus, containing 18 % Nitrogen and 44% P2O5 (19% P). It is rapidly soluble and is an excellent source of nitrogen and phosphorus for water supplementation of sheep and cattle and adding to molasses or licks. It is a slow release form of urea. This is due to the ...

Reduce methane and increase productivity at the same time

Are you losing urea to ammonia

If you are using alkaline bore water, chances are that you are losing urea to ammonia. Losses can be as high as 50%. This can occur in alkaline water where urea is less stable and breaks down to ammonia or if the enzyme, urease, is present in the trough from bacterial activity. Ammonia can exist in water in two forms. The ammonium ion NH4, is stable in neutral or acid waters and remains in solution and will not be lost. As well, it is non toxic to fish or other organisms. The ammonia molecule NH...
