The Hydroponic Cattle Feed; Alfaculture To Change The Future Of Livestock Industry

The hydroponic green fodder production facilities use advanced greenhouse and hydroponic technologies to produce high protein green fodder within a limited area, 365 days of the year. Grain seeds such as barley, oats, wheat, rye or sorghum, are germinated into sprouts that are grown on to form a thick mass of green feed with interwoven roots high in both nutrients and enzymes. Hydroponic technologies promote fast production with a growing cycle typically ranging from 7-10 days under controlled conditions in enclosed structures. No wonder, from seed to green feed of a height of approximately 250-300mm, within seven days!!
