Posted by Linda Richards on 21/04/26
From May 2026 the molasses / liquid feed price will rise by £15 - £25 per ton for Bulk loads and 2 - 6 pence per liter for Mini Bulk / IBC (depending on type of liquid feed / molasses blend). Any orders taken in April 2026 will be at the lower price.
Grazed grass is not a perfectly balanced feed with an excess of protein and lack of carbohydrates With more cows being brought in overnight will need a well-balanced buffer feed to ensure dry matter intakes are achieved Molasses based liquid feeds have been shown to improve fibre digestion and milk constituents, helping to support milk prices Supplementation with a molasses based liquid feed within a buffer feed will help provide the rapidly fermentable carbohydrates to balance the overall diet helping maintain rumen function and reduce the risk of SARA.
