Wheat Straw

Wheat Straw – Natural Fiber Source and Roughage for Livestock Feed

Product Overview

Wheat Straw is a natural, fibrous by-product obtained after the harvesting and threshing of wheat (Triticum aestivum). It serves as an important roughage and bedding material in the feeding of cattle, sheep, goats, and horses. While low in protein, it provides essential fiber that supports proper rumen function, saliva production, and digestive health. When used in combination with protein-rich forages or concentrates, it forms the foundation of balanced ruminant diets.

At Tuna Sourcing, we supply Clean, Sun-Dried Wheat Straw collected from selected farmlands and processed under ISO 22000 feed safety standards. Our straw is free from mold, weeds, and dust, ensuring safe use for both feed and bedding applications. Available in baled or chopped form, it offers consistent length, moisture, and density for easy handling and long-term storage.
