Feed for sheep and goats
Hartog offers a range of roughage products for your livestock. This allows you to compose the diet for your goats and sheep in the best possible way.
Goats
Goats occupy a special place in animal nutrition. For selective eaters such as goats, the main advantages of Hartog are consistent quality and ease of feeding. Goats are very critical when it comes to their feed. Taste, smell, dry matter content and mouthfeel are key factors by which a goat evaluates its feed. These are exactly the strengths of Hartog roughage products. The fresh, summery scent of the bales, combined with the consistent composition and taste, is highly valued by goat farmers. Hartog offers Hartog Lucerne Agri, Hartog Grass Mix, Hartog Lucerne Pellets and Hartog Grass Pellets for goat keepers. The products are dried at high temperature. For older goats, we specifically recommend Hartog Grass Mix, as this product is very palatable and easy to eat. Goats with poorer teeth will often leave the pellets in the Grass Mix.
Sheep
Sheep farming benefits greatly from dried roughage products, especially dried grass. This product is available in compact 20 kg bales.
The top quality of our products is guaranteed through complete process control. Hartog manages the entire production process in-house, from sowing through to distribution to the end user. The production process starts with the selection of contract growers, mainly arable farmers who cultivate crops on heavy, lime-rich clay soils. All Hartog alfalfa originates from Dutch soil. Alfalfa is harvested using our own machinery, allowing it to be cut at the optimal moment. The mower is immediately followed by a chopper, which finely chops the roughage, making it easy for goats and sheep to consume.
Organic feed materials
An increasing number of livestock farmers are transitioning from conventional to organic farming. In addition to conventional products, Hartog can also supply organic feed materials, such as Hartog Compact Lucerne BIO. Grasdrogerij Hartog BV is registered with Skal under company number 001195.
