NSA to give away six specialist sheep feeders in 2014

11th December 2013

National Sheep Association (NSA) have announced an exciting joint promotion with Advantage Feeders, offering anyone joining NSA before 28th November 2014 the chance to win one of six 3in1Feeder 800 models.

Sheep farmers simply have to sign up as a NSA member to be automatically entered into the free prize draw – or for existing NSA members they can gain an unlimited number of entries by recommending friends or neighbours who join the only UK-wide organisation to offer a dedicated voice for sheep farmers.

Phil Stocker, NSA Chief Executive, explains: “We are delighted to be working with Advantage Feeders for this NSA membership promotion and I am excited about giving away not one, but six top prizes over a 12-month period.

“We will all benefit from NSA growing its membership numbers. It gives us a stronger and more effective voice, helps keep membership costs down and contributes to our resources so we can provide better support and services. The NSA provides a much needed voice for UK sheep farmers and also supports them by providing up-to-day information and best practice advice for their farming business.”

Advantage Feeders 3in1 technology brings together the thinking behind ad lib feed block and liquid feeds with the traditional feeding of concentrates and home-mixed hard feeds. The feeders can be used as a traditional creep feeder or adapted to ration feed intake for lambs and breeding adults. Rationing is achieved by adjusting grooves at the feed face, encouraging stock to ‘lick’ rather than gorge and preventing the health implications caused by over-feeding. Advantage Feeders are also designed to save farmers’ time, reduce feed waste and deter mis-mothering at lambing time. The NSA promotion will see six 3in1Feeder 800 models given away, which can hold up to 500kg of feed.
