Advanta Nutrifeed Forage Pearl Millet

Nutrifeed forage pearl millet is a drought-tolerant, rich in protein fodder supplement that is new to the Kenyan market and has shown to improve milk quality and production by up to 30 per cent.

Developed by Advanta, a specialized dairy cattle feed research company, the forage pearl millet contains between 16-20 per cent protein content— in line with other sources of high protein content forage. In a feeding test  conducted at Joy Farm, Lanet, It was observed an increase in milk output for most cows, one moving from an output of 12 liters to between 16-18 liters daily in just two weeks.

While it grows across all regions, forage pearl millet is particularly engineered to offer farmers in arid and semi-arid regions a high protein supplement previously unavailable to them.
