Psyllium husk and khakha powder are both used in cattle nutrition programs, primarily to support digestive regularity and hydration retention. The mucilage content in psyllium absorbs water and forms a gel-like mass in the gut, slowing transit and improving nutrient uptake — a benefit particularly noted in high-producing dairy cows under heat stress.

Traditional cattle feed programs in Gujarat use psyllium-based "Sagar Gola" and "Sagar Lali" formulations — compressed feed blocks that combine psyllium with molasses and mineral mixes. These formats are designed for ease of feeding and have a long history in Gujarat and Rajasthan dairy farming. We supply both the raw ingredient and the formulated block on request.

For distributors supplying dairy farms, volume and packaging flexibility matter most. We offer 25 kg bags for smaller farm accounts and 1,000 kg jumbo bags for larger operations and resellers. Lead time from order to dispatch is 14–21 days, with export documentation available for cross-border shipments.
