History of Olsson Industries, depots and stockists We are the oldest family owned and operated salt & lick block manufacturers in Australia In 1949, just west of Parramatta, Norman Olsson made the first pressed multi-nutrient block in Australia. Norman Olsson had left the family ice business and bought a salt press to make salt blocks for sheep during the drought of the late 1940's. The first Olsson's Calcium Molasses pressed salt block was made in 1949- it was the forerunner of all multi-nutrient blocks made in Australia. Today we are Australia's most innovative ruminant supplement manufacturer in block form, manufacturing 20, 40, 100 and even 1000kg blocks. Every year, Olsson’s sponsor hundreds of free ruminant nutrition seminars all over Australia for the purpose of educating the grazier in better livestock nutrition. Olsson’s also provide a FreeCall Nutritional Advisory Line (FreeCall: 1800 804 096) for graziers to call and receive free advice on feeding programs and problems that they might have with their livestock. While striving to remain viable in an extremely competitive industry, Olsson’s have not ignored their responsibility to the environment. Olsson’s block boxes are now made from 100% recycled, unbleached cardboard which livestock are able to eat and digest, and we are committed to developing better and greener products and methods of packaging.

ALL NORTHERN BLOCKS BLOCKS FOR PRODUCTION FEEDING BROCHURE (PDF) NORTHERN We place major minerals in individual supplement blocks, allowing the animals to choose which minerals they require as they require them. By feeding the Free Choice program over a standard multi-nutrient block, the animal has the ability to choose and balance what they require- this ends up reducing consumption by up to 25%. Olsson's Free Choice System identifies nutritional deficiency in livestock and satisfies the deficiency effectively. Studies have found all ruminants need a source of protein (nitrogen), a source of sulphur, a source of trace elements, and for livestock in the North, a source of phosphorus in order to be at their most productive. We place these major minerals in individual supplement blocks, allowing the animals to choose which minerals they require as they require them. No time is wasted and deficiency is corrected quickly and effectively. The Free Choice Northern System includes: NT Uraphos (urea supplement for protein), 16% High Sulphur or Allicin + Sulphur (sulphur), Superphos 8% or Superphos 12% (phosphorus) and Trace Element Northern Breeder (complete trace element blend). Because the Free Choice System splits the macro minerals, animals can have a choice in their nutritional requirements. They can satisfy their own nitrogen requirement, sulphur requirements, and can balance their own sulphur to nitrogen ratio by consuming varying amounts of urea and sulphur blocks separately, avoiding over consumption.
