We manufacture a range of quality animal feed blends designed to satisfy the animals’ nutritional needs and specific health requirements.
Our blends derive optimum animal performance with maximum results without compromising on taste or appearance.
Using the latest technology and testing on our own cattle, we are market leaders in the manufacturing of quality beef blends supplying throughout Ireland.
Capper specialises in the production of high quality blends using cereal which is cooked, steam-flaked and rolled prior to the blending process. Steam-flaking of cereals is a more intensive processing procedure than dry-rolling or grinding making the cereal easier to digest.
Optimal starch utilisation is fundamental to improving the efficiency of beef production. The steam-flaking process not only improves starch digestibility but also increases high-quality protein content.
- The Net Energy values for steam-flaked cereal are increased by 15-20% compared to dry-rolling or ground maize
- In beef cattle, steam-flaking has been shown to consistently increase feed efficiency by 10-15%
Alfalfa, also known as Lucerne, is a legume grown around the world as a forage crop. It has the highest feeding values of all the other hay crops as it is high in both protein and digestible fibre. Its structure is ideal for providing optimum 'scratch effect' in ruminants. This scratch effect is essential for correct rumen function especially when high starch diets are being fed.
The inclusion of alfalfa in our complete diets ensures digestive upsets are minimised, without compromising on maximum daily live weight gain.
Our blends are available for collection in 25kg bags, mini tote and bulk or delivered as requested.
