What Are Fodder Capsules and Why Are They Essential?
Modern livestock farming faces major challenges like climate change, rising feed costs, and water scarcity. To tackle these issues, hydroponic Fodder Capsules offer a sustainable, high-yield solution that provides fresh, nutrient-rich feed year-round, even in extreme environments.
These controlled environment systems use 95% less water than traditional farming, ensuring efficient production of essential livestock feed while reducing environmental impact. According to a study by the FAO, hydroponic farming dramatically optimizes water and energy use compared to conventional methods. (Source: FAO – Hydroponic Systems)
But what can be grown in Fodder Capsules? Let’s explore the key crops and their benefits.
What Can Be Grown in Fodder Capsules?
Our hydroponic systems are designed to optimize the growth of high-energy and protein-rich fodder crops, ensuring optimal livestock nutrition. Here’s a look at the key seeds cultivated in our Fodder Capsules and their benefits:
A study published on ResearchGate found that hydroponic fodder provides superior digestibility and improves overall livestock performance due to its higher moisture content and bioavailability. (Source: ResearchGate – Hydroponic Fodder Nutrition)
