Natural and Effective

As Eri Maden, we offer effective solutions to the livestock sector with Türkiye’s highest quality bentonite resources. Bentonite, used as a feed additive, increases the efficiency and durability of feeds while supporting animal health.

 

Advantages of Bentonite as a Feed Additive

Prevents Clumping

Bentonite’s strong natural absorption capacity eliminates excess moisture in feed, preventing clumping. This ensures that the feed remains homogeneous for extended periods.

Supports Digestive Health

By buffering stomach acid, bentonite helps maintain balance in the digestive system. This is particularly beneficial in preventing stomach discomfort caused by acidic feeds.

Binds Toxins

Bentonite effectively binds mycotoxins and harmful chemicals in feed, reducing toxin exposure and strengthening the immune system of animals.

Improves Feed Flowability

The inclusion of bentonite in feed mixtures enhances free flow, optimizing the production process and improving the efficiency of feeding equipment.

Preserves Nutritional Value

By maintaining moisture balance, bentonite prevents feed spoilage, keeping it fresh and preserving its nutritional value for longer.

Reduces Ammonia Levels

Bentonite absorbs ammonia from animal waste, improving air quality in barns and enclosed spaces, thus creating a healthier environment.

Bentonite Dosage Recommendations

Bentonite usage varies based on animal type and feed composition. General dosage recommendations are:

  • Cattle: 2-4% of the feed mixture.

  • Sheep & Goats: 1.5-3% of the feed mixture.

  • Poultry: 1-2% of the feed mixture.

At Eri Maden, we provide technical support to help our customers determine the optimal dosage and usage for their specific needs.

A Natural and Reliable Solution

Bentonite is a 100% natural mineral that can be safely used as a feed additive without harming animal health. Produced under Eri Mining’s high-quality standards, our bentonite ensures efficiency and sustainability in the livestock industry.
