Cut rice straw into 3-6 centimeters. Dissolve 600 grams of urea in 10 liters of water and evenly spray the solution to 10 kg of rice straw. Mix thoroughly and pack in polyethylene sack/plastic. Remove air from the sack. Tightly secure the sack with rope and stock at room temperature. Allow the product to cure for two weeks. Before giving to animals allow the UTRS to dry for about 48 hours for ammonia evaporation. Legumes : Worm-Free Feed! Feed Resources Technologies UREA TREATED RICE STRAW (UTRS) CORN SILAGE UEA MOLASSES MINERAL SOLUBLE GLASS BLOCK (UMMB) MINERAL BOLUS  Workable Year Round Feeding Program J F M A M J J A S O N D DRY DRY SEASON RAINY SEASON SEASON Feeding Equipment  Developed Technologies On Feeding and Nutrition TECHNOLOGY MIX 1: Multipurpose tree legumes Complete Confinement Controlled breeding & use supplementation of improved breeder buck Bigger goat More productive + Higher income Urea-treated rice straw Strategic deworming TECHNOLOGY MIX 2: Rapid Rotational Grazing + Farm residues utilization UMMB/Medicated UMMB TECHNOLOGY MIX 3: Traditional Tethering/ Partial Confinement Rice bran supplementation SGB supplementation +
