Which block will give my stock...

...a cost effective protein source for good maintenance?

There always may be a time that stock just need to "tick over" but forage alone will not meet demands. In this situation a cost effect protein source that will encourage better foraging and fibre digestion is required. Stockade Standard will tick all the boxes required with an excellent 28% protein as well as good energy levels and minerals. The 25kg cereal block is ideal for upland or outlying sheep on poorer quality grazing. It can also be fed to cattle.

...cover for both magnesium and protein requirements?

Ideal for either outlying cattle or sheep on poor grazing at high risk times, Stockade Magnesium will comfortably meet mag requirements. The blend of proteins will also stimulate the rumen to aid fibre digestion. Palatability is never a problem with this block.
ORDER: STOCKADE MAGNESIUM

...a high level of energy and protein to encourage foraging?

As lambing gets closer the need for energy and higher quality protein increases. Stockade Sheep Energy gives a 16% blend of natural proteins, but retains a sprinkle of urea to encourage foraging and also aid fibre digestion. The oils are increased to provide a good energy source and this is when vitamin E and selenium take a step up to promote healthy, viable lambs.

...an additional boost of energy and help milk production?

The ideal combination in the final run up to lambing is an increase in energy and some good quality protein. Stockade Energy Plus gives all this and more. One of the highest spec blocks on the market, it is often hard to find a comparison. A full 20% of all natural protein will aid ewe milk yield and colostrum quality and oils are high to ensure energy demand is met. Vitamin E is high to give newborn lambs the vigour to get up and suckle quickly, making the shepherds’ job easier.

...ensuring all stock have access to salt?

Salt is one of the most frequently ignored but essentially needed macro minerals. Salt on a free-access basis will aid forage digestion by helping produce saliva which will buffer rumen pH. Often if an animal binges on any supplement the underlying problem can often be a chronic shortage of copper in the diet. A salt block is a low-cost, waste-free solution. Use Stockade Trace Salt + Copper for cattle only, or for cattle and sheep use Stockade Trace Salt. Ensure water is available at all times.
