CUSTOM FEED PLANS

Milne Feeds Product Managers are experts in their field and passionate about helping customers find the right feed solution and achieve the most out of their feed program. Our goal is to provide expert nutritional and technical support at all times, in turn enabling customers to access the full benefits of our feeds.

GRAIN SWAP PROGRAM

Milne Feeds’ Grain Swap Program is very popular with growers and presents a great opportunity to convert your grain crop into complete feed solutions. The program involves the Grower allocating grain, within CBH, to Milne Feeds. At the same time, the specific pellet product, price and tonnage is formalised in a contract. The Grower then nominates the approximate timing (slot) for receiving pellets through the season. Grain Swaps are a great way for current customers to secure their pellet supply and price, whilst converting their grain into fully fortified, nutritionally balanced feeds solutions with guaranteed protein, energy and mineral specifciations.
