Specialised Deer Farming Systems
Farming system
Deer
Having worked with deer farmers for over 30 years through Mainland Minerals we understand the difference. Starting with our comprehensive soil tests that dig deeper into elements like copper, zinc, cobalt, selenium, boron and manganese, we set out a program that will make difference to deer performance.
Our clients have achieved remarkable results in velvet weight and quality, along with superior weight gains in weaners. We know that being able to supply the essential trace elements through the soil to the pasture to the animal is the most efficient and sustainable option.
With our fine particle fertiliser, customised granular blends and added bio stimulants, we have all fertiliser and nutrient options available for any application method.
