Palm kernel meal, tapioca, copra and soybean meal are distributed from massive storage facilities in the north and south islands by truck fl eets belonging to J Swap and other cartage contractors. Storage and transport capacity are the key to our ability to rapidly deliver stockfoods to any farmer.
Our farmer customers do not need to have purpose-built facilities or specialist feeding out equipment. Dry storage on the farm where our bin trucks can dump is important. Feeding out can be done with a front end loader and many farmers use dairy shed feed pads or trailers in paddocks.
Alternatively, palm kernel meal, tapioca and copra can be mixed with other products before being fed out.
