Background:
Fair Dinkum Fish Emulsion can be used as a fertilizer or alternatively, as an additive to stock feeds for some meat animals and birds (except ruminants).

Some reported benefits for animals include enhanced weight gain, and improved palatability. Reports suggest that Brood birds and animals will benefit from an ongoing additionof Fish Emulsion to their diet.

A generally supported ratio of 5% Fish Emulsion should be mixed in with other feed to encourage the animal to eat feed. The percentage of fish should be reduced gradually and concluded at least 6 to 8 weeks before slaughter.

Fair Dinkum Fertilizers Fish Emulsion product is filtered to 100 micron to aid in the application process, either through a fine boom spray or dripper systems.

Fair Dinkum Fish Emulsion is often used to increase the microbial activity in the soil either by direct application or as a component of “compost tea”.

If used in compost tea the Fish Emulsion should be mixed with liquid seaweed and either humate or fulvate. Fair Dinkum Fertilizers are able to offer some advice on making compost teas if required.
