Moringa For Livestock-and-poultry by ayo84(op): 6:51am On Oct 03, 2019
Moringa tree leaves are well known as a good source of protein and vitamins A and C.
Using moringa as an animal food source may be one of the new things to explore.
The only setback is its seasonal nature plus it tskes 8 months to grow. But its stem cutting cultivation might take some .However there are strategies that you can adapt to increase the germination process.

When it is grown from seeds it can be sown either directly or in containers. Moringa should be sown at the beginning of the rainy season on an elevated seedbed so that it is protected from waterlogging, but it can benefit from soil moisture. While propagation through seeds is well adapted to foliage production, propagation from cuttings is suitable for high-grade fruit production and for root production

Planting a moringa farm can provide the needed foods for your farm animals and may be obe of the most herbal defenses against common and yet to be manufactured diseases.

However we should be careful not to lsy emphasis on commercialising its sale but a do it home thing..we don't want prople to make gmos out of it and call it moringa leaves that give more vitamin c than the ones we have currently. I am of the opinion our entire food source has been compromised. Gmo foods we give our animals are ... the rest is yours to decipher with the increasing rate of sickness witnessed among our animals.

It is still advisable not to use it solely but make your own mixture . There is a not so perfect blend of natural organic leaves and plants you can combine that can give your animals the perfect food combination to remain healthy and strong.

I never said give it solely..a combination makes more sense .... moringa neem corn stalk from left over and some weed ... there are some herbs that grow naturally and dry and create blend mix

It should used as an additive

Snails don't like it
