Calcium is essential to livestock for good health and consistent growth. Calcium carbonate gives animals the highest levels of nutritional supplement.

Dairy - The right amount of calcium in a livestock's diet is a key factor in continual milk production and quality.

Poultry - Calcium is essential in a poultry diet for the digestion of feed. Calcium carbonate also gives eggshells the strength they need for high yield production.

Other - Other agricultural-related uses of calcium carbonate include its use as a calcium supplement in animal and bird feed compounds. Calcium is essential to the health and growth of all living things. It makes no difference if you are feeding a milk cow, a laying hen or a hog; other examples - deer, horses and rabbits.
