Diet feeders

Vertical auger diet feeder

Controlling feeding and mechanisation costs are key to farm profitability which is why Lucas G offer a wide range of vertical auger diet feeders to suit particular requirements of precision feeding. The main benefits link to the use of a diet feeder is that you can control the quantities of raw materials used and distributed per batch per day.

After a while of using, an overall improvement of :

• an improved health state of the cattle is observed
• a drop of diarrhoea
• a better health-based performance.

From the silo to the feeding trough and on to milk and meat, this sequence of stages – each one just as important as the next – must be carefully monitored and managed to achieve your production targets.

Our mixing and feeding machines provide mixed rations

The use of mixed rations ensures that the same ration is prepared throughout the year, thereby preventing animals from picking and choosing at the feeding trough.

The benefits of mixing are numerous: increased milk yield or fattening output per animal, a significant reduction in feed wastage at the trough, better control of operating costs and a guaranteed return on investment from the very first year of use.

Another advantage of using a mixing bowl is that you can control the quantity of raw materials used and distributed per batch and per day. After a period of use, a general improvement in the herd’s health is observed, leading to a significant reduction in diarrhoea and better health performance.
