Biscon meal
Biscon meal is made up of a micronised meal of maize, wheat, barley, peas and beans, as well as confectionery products (cake, sweet pastry, breakfast cereals etc.). Biscon feed is specifically developed for fattening and finishing, as this high energy food allows them to gain weight an accelerated rate. Due to the 14 – 15 ME, care must be taken, as with all high energy feeds, to introduce stock on to the product slowly so their digestive systems aren’t overwhelmed, thereby reducing the risk of health issues.
