Futterfos™

Feedmaster FUTTERFOS is a P14 with 8% molasses and a new trace-mineral premix.
The product's Ca:P ratio is 1:1.
It replaces the standard P12 products as a result of new Namibian research results.
Due to the fact that too high-levels of Ca suppress the absorption of P and other trace minerals (iron, iodine, zinc and manganese) and that Namibian sandveld areas already have too much Ca in relation to P, the better ratio of 1:1 of Futterfos improves the absorption of P.
Another point is that the Ca:P ratio of leaf material of bush is much higher than that of grass pastures. Therefore,where animals consume a big amount of bush the 1:1 ratio of Futterfos also improves the absorption of P and other minerals.
Phosphate sources with the highest bio-availability was used in the development of the product.
