MAIZE DISTILLERS WET GRAINS:

Supply of wet distillers is already getting tight for this winter, we can however take prebooking’s for deliveries later in the season. Wet distillers is easy to store in or outside, high in protein, oil and relatively high in DM at 35%. Contact us for more details.

 

HOME AND DRY:

Grain harvest is well under way and with an unfortunately low grain price and little or no sign of a drop in compound feed prices many farmers are availing of treating grain direct from the combine.

Grain fill in spring barley has been very satisfactory so starch levels will be very high complemented with the 4.5% protein lift from adding 30kg of HOME & DRY.

Farmers can expect an excellent stable, high starch, increased protein Alkaline feed with a 12 month shelf life.

 

WINTER BARLEY:

Growers interested in getting wheat or barley seed dressed with REDIGO DETER should let us know ASAP.

This treatment helps control all aphid vectors of BYDV, slug grain-hollowing damage and wireworm.

Only new 2 row variety added to the provisional recommended list is INFINITY

This received 102 for yield in trials with good all-round disease resistance good bushel and straw strength

 

 SPRAYER TESTING:

The deadline for testing your sprayer is fast approaching; the failure rate so far has been low with little being needed to bring sprayers up to speed, contact us for further details and to arrange your test or ring Sean O Flynn directly on 0871272334.

Neosorexa Gold. Deadly in a Day!

Deadly in a day!

Neosorexa® Gold

The fastest, most effective multi-purpose cut wheat bait.

Product Description

Deadly in a day! A mixture of foraging grains pellets and cut wheat. The first rodent bait to use Fortec Technology which aids modern rodent control through a better understanding of their natural feeding behaviour.

Neosorexa® Gold significantly improves rodenticide consumption by making the most of foraging grains to produce a more appealing and arresting mixed bait.

What is Fortec?

A patented technology which significantly improves rodenticide consumption by making the most of foraging grains to produce a more appealing and arresting mixed bait.

The key to this technology lies in making the added grains sufficiently different from the bulk of the bait in size, shape, colour, smell, taste and texture. The new technology works by appealing more completely to all the rodent senses involved in natural feeding behaviour.

How to use

When signs of rats are seen, survey your premises inside and out to determine the extent and location of the infestation.

Check for runs along walls and in vegetation around buildings.
Check for rat holes, especially near water, up to 100m away.
Check inside buildings for damage and droppings.
Check for tracks in dust and mud.

Neosorexa Gold is available in 500g, 1kg & 3kg

PROMPT AUTUMN ACTION TO COUNTER RAT THREAT

“Prolonged warm and dry weather will have meant prolific rat breeding over the main summer months” explains rural hygiene specialist Joe Lynch. “As soon as harvesting deprives them of food and shelter in the fields this means relatively large numbers will follow the grain and straw inside”.

The need for effective, early rat control is made all the greater by the accute pressure put on forage stocks by one of the longest winters and latest springs in recent memory.

1. EARLY TREATMENT IS ESSENTIAL
2. CHECK FOR RAT ACTIVITY AROUND KEY BUILDINGS
3. CAREFULLY SITED BAIT POINTS ALONG RAT RUNS
4. SECURELY FASTEN BLOCKS WITHIN BAIT STATIONS
