DRY LOOSE LICK

BEEF STARTER 5U LICK

Product Description

Woods Stockfeeds Beef Starter 5U Lick is a dry loose lick

suitable for cattle grazing standing mature pasture or crop

stubble of at least 1000kg DM/Ha. It has a low level of urea

that allows all classes of cattle to start on prior to moving

onto the desired dry loose lick.


Beef Starter 5U Lick contains no grains or grain components and is suitable to be considered a grain free/pasturefed diet. No rumen modifiers are used in the production of this feed.


Beef Starter 5U Lick is composed of slow rumen degradable protein meals, urea (5% maximum), salt (15% maximum), limestone, mono-dicalcium phosphate (MDCP), magnesium and sulphur sources, and trace minerals and vitamins. Additives such as rumen modifiers or probiotics may be included at the request of the customer.

Feeding Guidelines

Recommended feeding rate is 250 to 300 grams per

head per day for backgrounding cattle.


Supply in well drained open-ended troughs or

covered feeders. Once consumption rates are settled,

do not let troughs become empty as cattle may over

consume upon reintroduction of dry loose lick.
