LOW MOISTURE SUPPLEMENT BLOCS

Rite-Lix low moisture blocs are proven to attract cattle more consistently than conventional supplementation methods, and due to their hardness they can not be bitten, chewed or over consumed. Cattle lick the blocs periodically throughout the day, ensuring a limited, consistent intake. Typical consumption is from 125 to 500 grams per head per day, depending on forage quality and animal size.
