Abstract
A binder ingredient for pelleted feeds comprising a direct binding agent present as a dry thin film layer or coating upon a solid particle of organic nutrient-filler. The dry thin film layer or coating comprises a water soluble lignin sulfonate such as calcium lignin sulfonate, while the organic nutrient-filler comprises granular dried reed sedge peat. The binder is mixed with the feed ingredients in a desired range, such as in the range of approximately 2 percent by weight, to form a pelleted feed.
