Animal Nutrition

Inorganic metal salts have been used for years to supplement the diets of livestock that feed on natural sources of food which may be deficient in the elements and minerals necessary for healthy growth and development. One such element is Cobalt, which has been determined to aid in the production of Vitamin B12 in ruminants such as sheep and cattle. By adding Cobalt salts to feed supplements, livestock producers can help provide the correct amount of Vitamin B12 necessary to keep their animals healthy and developing normally.

The Shepherd Chemical Company produces several Cobalt salts that have been used to supplement the diets of ruminants, including special grades of Cobalt Carbonate and Cobalt Sulfate that were developed especially for the animal feed industry. These products do not contain the higher amounts of contaminants normally found in standard grade products. Shepherd Chemical has both the high quality products and technical knowledge to greatly aid in your Cobalt feed supplement requirements.
