Using molasses is not compulsory. Here is another fmla without molasses or meals:
Urea, % 10
Salt, % 65
Cement, % 15
Mineral premix, % 10
Composition:
N x 6.25, g/kg 250
Ca, g/kg >9
P, g/kg >5
Fe, mg/kg 1300
Cu, mg/kg 140
Zn, mg/kg 520
Mn, mg/kg 450
I, mg/kg 10
Co, mg/kg 5
Se, mg/kg 3
.
Salt and urea, and cement as a binder were used as purchased, while the remainder of the minerals was purchased as a mixture already prepared in a feed additive plant. The ingredients were then mixed by a shovel on a concrete floor. The mineral premix and cement were mixed first, and they were then well mixed with the rest of ingredients. The mixture was then compressed in a mould measuring 15 cm x 15 cm x 10 cm, and the resulting blocks weighing 2 kg each were wrapped immediately.
.
Note: Urea in excess is very toxic to ruminants. To prevent uneven distribution of urea on the block, dissolve it first in little water b4 mixing with the rest of the ingredients.
