Application
Pasture Dusting - apply to damp pasture and re-dust if heavy rain occurs within 2-3 days of application.

Sheep: Apply daily to pasture about to be grazed at 6-8g/sheep/day
Oral Drenching (post-calving) - mix thoroughly with water and during drenching agitate regularly to maintain suspension. Suitable stabilising agents may help to keep Magnesium Oxide Fine in suspension.

Capability and precautions
Magnesium Oxide Fine cannot be added to water supply as it is not soluble, and will sink to the bottom of the trough.
Storage and handling
Store in a cool, dry covered facility, and ensure that the bag is closed properly after use. Dust masks and eye protection are recommended when handling product if excessive dust is present.
Shelf life
5 years from date of manufacture
Mixing
Magnesium Oxide Fine has no known incompatibilities, but is insoluble in water so cannot be administered through the drinking water. If Magnesium Oxide Fine is to be mixed into suspension with Lime Flour the magnesium oxide should be suspended in water and left to stand for at least several hours before the Lime Flour is added
