The cubes are in 50-lb luggage and will likely be bought at a value similar to that of normal hay.
To buy and acquire the hay cubes, farmers ought to go to the Ministry of Agriculture’s Animal Nutrition Unit positioned at The Pine, St Michael, through the month of July. Distribution will likely be from 8:30 a.m. to three:00 p.m. day by day.
For additional data, livestock farmers might contact the Unit at 535-5951 or 5954. (BGIS)
