MegaMin Extra Sulphur
High Sulphur Supplement with Macro and Trace Minerals
MegaMin Extra Sulphur provides broad spectrum macro and trace minerals as well as additional sulphur. Sulphur is important to assist with rumen health, is associated with supporting external parasite control, is a key component of wool and is an important production tool for stock grazing forage sorghum.
MegaMin Extra Sulpur also provides good levels of phosphorus and magnesium, which are the two most limiting nutrients for stock grazing lush green pasture. These key nutrients are required by livestock throughout the year and in particular during spring and summer or periods of lush green growth.
Many soils are also low in sulphur, therefore it can be important to provide additional dietary sulphur along with broad spectrum minerals.
Why you need a professionally balanced sulphur supplement:
Feeding straight sulphur or adding it to a feed ration yourself comes with an element of risk. Excessive consumption can cause Polioencephalomalacia (PEM). Symptoms include blindness, brain irritation and even death. MegaMin Extra Sulphur has been formulated to provide the additional sulphur needed along with phosphorus, magnesium and broad spectrum minerals that are essential for stock health.
Why supplementing with MegaMin Extra Sulphur assists stock grazing forage sorghum:
Prussic acid contained in forage sorghum can actually limit fodder intake, resulting in lower weight gains for cattle grazing forage and other sorghum varieties. While forage sorghum is being digested in the rumen, prussic acid or hydrogen cyanide may be released. This can be fatal, however, more commonly it may be sub-clinically present at low levels, which can greatly reduce weight gains.
Sulphur has an important role in detoxifying prussic acid and helps reduces the risk of cyanide poisoning. With adequate sulphur intake, stock are able to graze more stalk and stem resulting in better utilisation of the plant and subsequent regrowth. Trials have shown that providing additional sulphur can increase daily weight gains by as much as 300-500 grams per day
