Manufacturing Facility - Quality Control
Mole Valley Feed Solutions have a unique facility for the manufacture of minerals. The Somerset based plant incorporates a fully automated process control and micro-weighing facility, helping us to maintain the stringent quality controls and ever higher standards demanded by increasing legislation. This modern mineral plant is well situated to supply farmers across our trading area with quality mineral supplements. We use only the highest quality raw materials to manufacture a wide range of mineral supplements and mineral premix products.
All raw materials are FEMAS approved and we undertake a stringent quality control programme with all incoming raw materials and manufactured products.
Custom Special Minerals
We have the advantage of being one of the major manufacturers of minerals for ruminants in the UK, Mole Valley Farmers can offer custom manufactured special formulations. These can either be manufactured to a specification that, for example that you are currently using or that your consultant has recommended, alternatively our technical team are happy to formulate minerals to suit your farm, ration, herd performance and circumstances. We can also offer a wide range of additions to minerals including Chelated (protected) trace elements to help prevent interaction to avoid "lock-up" with other antagonists plus the option to add other ingredients such as Biotin, Yeasts, Mycotoxin binders etc.
Key Benefits

A major benefit of buying minerals direct from Mole Valley Farmers is that as the manufacturer we can offer a great deal of flexibility in the product that we supply you:
-
The product can be formulated specifically to suit your farming system, the diet being used and take into account the herd performance and any other circumstances thus giving you the peace of mind of having a bespoke product made to order for your farm and requirements.
-
It can be just a basic mineral supplement or a complete package of minerals and other feed ingredients e.g. rumen buffers, yeasts etc. this will help you to save time on the farm and reduce waste whilst reducing the number of products that you need to add and thus reducing the risk of error or poor dispersion in the ration.
If you don't see what you require on these pages, please contact us.
Whether you would like us to quote you for a specification that you are already using or you would like us to formulate a special mineral to suit your farm situation, contact us today for a quotation.
Research
 |
The link between diet and performance. |
Research has shown that minerals, trace elements and vitamins are essential nutrients for the health and performance of ruminant livestock. Whilst clinical symptoms are easily identified (e.g. milk fever, grass staggers and retained placentas), sub clinical problems present a greater challenge.
Accurate mineral nutrition has become increasingly important as advancements in genetics and greater dependence on forages, blends and straights fed along with new nutritional standards for feeding livestock, has brought about a greater reliance on mineral supplementation. The diet of ruminants has become notoriously variable in terms of ration composition due to these changes in feeding higher yielding dairy cows.
Mole Valley Feed Solutions forage mineral profile analysis results have helped us to identify where these improvements need to be made. We are then able to work with customers to address the situation on their farm.
The Nutri-LINK range of minerals have been formulated with the needs of the modern ruminant at the forefront of our range and to maintain optimum health and performance. Only the highest quality raw materials have been selected for incorporation into the range.
