Top quality grains
for healthy growth
and performance
CowraFeed sources a reliable range of cereal grains, pulses and oilseeds, delivering consistent and quality nutrition for livestock and birds across every stage of growth. Straight grains let you build or supplement a ration to suit your own animals, your budget and what they already get from pasture, backed by the quality and consistency that comes from sourcing locally in the Lachlan Valley.
Grain feed range
Straight grains are used to add energy or protein to a base ration, to extend pasture in dry conditions, to fill a gap in a home-mixed feed or to feed birds and poultry a preferred grain. Cereals like wheat, corn and oats bring energy; pulses like lupins and tic beans add protein; oilseeds like sunflower add oil and condition. Because you control what goes in, straights give you the flexibility to feed to your own animals, your season and your budget.
Our range of grain stockfeed
Stock Feed Grain Range and Product Options
Our grains fall into three groups: cereals for energy, pulses for protein and oilseeds for oil and condition, so you can build or top up a ration to suit.
Air Cleaned Oats
Cleaned oats, a traditional safe-energy grain for horses and stock. A great source of quick-release energy for horses and general feeding. Air cleaned to remove small grain, dust and chaff.
Black Sunflower and Grey Striped Sunflower
Oil-rich seeds packed with vitamins and minerals for boosting weight gain, safe and palatable for birds, horses and all classes of livestock. Both varieties add protein, fat and coat condition to a ration, with black sunflower being the higher-oil option and grey striped a popular alternative for birds.
Cracked Corn
5-10% more digestible than whole corn. High-energy cracked grain, popular for horses. Provides high levels of starch to improve growth.
Feed Wheat
An energy-dense grain staple for many livestock rations. A go-to source of readily available energy, widely used for poultry and birds. Ideal for improving the digestive systems of chickens.
Cracked Lupins and Cracked Tic Beans
Protein-rich pulses for building condition and topping up ration protein. Cracked for digestibility, these are the higher-protein choice when you need to lift the protein in a home-mixed ration.
Hard Wheat
A premium milling-grade wheat, cleaned and graded for consistent quality. It’s the highest-protein wheat in the range, offering a palatable, digestible source of starch and energy that’s popular across all stockfeed diets.
Rolled Barley
Rolled to lift digestibility and processed to remove dust. It is also a strong source of energy, fibre and starch and an excellent addition to forage-based diets.
Whole Peas
An easy-to-digest source of protein, suited to sheep, cattle and poultry. A soy alternative used in livestock diets to support faster growth and optimum performance.
Why Feed Quality Straight Grains
Straight grains earn their place when you want control and value, through:
- Flexibility to feed your way. Build a ration from scratch or top up pasture and complete feeds to match your animals’ needs and your budget.
- Consistent, reliable quality. Locally sourced grain from the Lachlan Valley means dependable batch-to-batch quality.
- Energy or protein on demand. Reach for cereals when you need energy, pulses when you need protein and oilseeds for oil and condition.
- Value in dry conditions. Straights are a cost-effective way to extend pasture and keep stock ticking over through a dry spell.
- A grain that birds and stock take to. From cracked corn for poultry to sunflower for birds, straights let you feed a grain your animals actually prefer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why feed straight grains instead of a complete feed?
Straight grains give you flexibility to build or top up a ration to your own animals’ needs and budget, handy when you want to supplement good pasture rather than replace it.
Which grain adds the most protein?
Pulses such as lupins and tic beans are your higher-protein options; cereals like wheat and corn are energy-focused.
Is cracked or whole grain better?
Cracking improves digestibility for some classes of stock, while whole grain suits others and stores well. It depends on the animal and how you’re feeding.
How do I avoid digestive upsets with grain?
Introduce any grain gradually, keep roughage in front of stock and provide clean water. Ask us if you’re unsure about a safe transition.
Can I buy in bulk?
Yes. Grains are available in 20kg bags through to 1T bulk-a-bag and bulk.
