Support for Livestock Farmers with Triticale from Silivri Municipality

The Silivri Municipality has provided significant support by delivering triticale feed, which plays an important role in animal nutrition, to livestock farmers in the region. Triticale is a type of grain obtained by hybridizing wheat and rye, and it is preferred in animal feeding due to its special nutritional values.

The municipality packaged and distributed triticale feed to farmers living in the neighborhoods of Değirmenköy, Kadıköy, Fener, and Akören to meet their needs. With this initiative, the aim is to support local livestock activities and promote sustainable agricultural policies.

Benefits of Triticale Feed

Triticale is known for its high protein content and provides significant contributions to animal nutrition. This type of feed has the potential to particularly increase milk and meat productivity, positively affecting the overall health of animals. Additionally, the use of this traditional food source offers livestock owners a cost advantage, contributing to economic sustainability.

Through this project implemented by the Silivri Municipality, the aim is to not only support livestock farmers but also contribute to the local economy. By supporting local agricultural production, the competitive power of producers in the region may also increase. Since triticale is a plant that can be easily grown in the regional climate, it is expected that farmers will be encouraged to cultivate this product more.

The Role of Triticale in Animal Husbandry

As the local livestock farmers experience the benefits of triticale feed, the broader acceptance of this product may become prominent. The increasing preference for triticale in the field of animal production will provide positive contributions to the development of the sector in the future. This situation is regarded as an important step in enhancing the quality of animal nutrition while also contributing to the sustainability of livestock farming.
