Lick Stone

A lick stone is essential in securing the cattle’s individual need of salt, minerals, trace elements and vitamins, which are essential for good health, and therefore the performance of the cattle.

Because of the natural licking behaviour of cattle, they can balance their need for salt, minerals, trace elements and vitamins by means of a lick stone.

The product is produced with a high-pressure method, that makes them resistant to rain and easy to handle. The lick stones consist only of the finest and purest salt or salt with the addition of approved feed additives such as minerals and vitamins modified to cattle.

All types of lick stones are GMP+ certificated and approved for use in organic production.
