Lupins are an incredibly versatile and nutritious feed grain, highly valued by Australian farmers and animal owners. Known for being naturally high in protein and energy while being low in starch, they are an excellent supplement for a wide variety of livestock and pets. Because the energy in lupins comes from highly digestible fiber rather than starch, they provide a "cool" energy source, making them particularly safe and beneficial for animals prone to digestive upsets from cereal grains. ## The Benefits of Feeding Lupins **High Protein Content:** Essential for muscle growth, milk production, and overall animal health. **Highly Digestible Fiber:** Provides a safe, sustained energy release without the "fizz" associated with high-starch grains. **Low Starch:** Greatly reduces the risk of acidosis, colic, and laminitis, making it an excellent choice for horses, sheep, and cattle. **Rich in Essential Amino Acids:** Helps support healthy fleece growth in sheep and egg production in poultry. ## Whole vs. Rolled Lupins: Which is right for you? We supply lupins in both whole and rolled forms to suit your specific feeding requirements: **Whole Lupins:** Ideal for sheep and mature cattle who are capable of fully chewing and digesting the whole grain. They also have a longer shelf life. **Rolled (Cracked) Lupins:** The outer seed coat has been broken, making the nutrients much easier to digest and absorb. Rolled lupins are highly recommended for horses, pigs, poultry, and young livestock whose digestive systems may struggle to break down the whole seed. ## Suitable For Lupins are a fantastic supplementary feed for: **Sheep & Cattle:** Excellent for drought feeding, flushing ewes, or backgrounding steers. **Horses:** A popular "cool" feed that provides condition and energy without making the horse hot or excitable. **Pigs & Poultry:** A valuable protein source to mix into custom feed rations. **Goats & Alpacas:** Great for maintaining condition during colder months or lactation. ## Feeding Guide & Storage Advice **How to feed:** As with any new feed, lupins should be introduced to your animal’s diet gradually over 10 to 14 days to allow their digestive system to adjust. Always ensure that your livestock have access to plenty of fresh drinking water and adequate roughage (hay or pasture). **Storage:** To maintain maximum freshness and nutritional value, store your 20kg bags of lupins in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, safely away from rodents and moisture. ### Providing you the highest quality products that meet your Expectations SHOP ## Related Products [ ![Grain maize whole](https://assetnutrition.com.au/volumes/images/Products/_600x400_scale_center-center_80_none/grain-maize-whole.jpg) ### Maize **Maize** - Available as Whole or Rolled in 20kg bags or bulk amount.
