Optimizing Crop Growth, Soil Conditioning, and Livestock Nutrition
-
Neutralizes soil acidity: Helps maintain an optimal pH balance for plant nutrient availability.
-
Improves soil structure: Enhances aeration and water retention, benefiting root development.
-
Strengthens cell walls: Provides essential calcium for plant growth and resistance to diseases.
-
Enhances nutrient uptake: Improves the effectiveness of fertilizers by balancing soil minerals.
-
Supports bone & eggshell formation: Ensures healthy growth and productivity in poultry and livestock.
-
Aids in digestion: Buffers stomach acids in ruminants, improving feed efficiency.
- GCC grades with particle sizes of 1 μm, 2 μm and 5 μm are best suited for incorporation into animal feed formulations as they provide optimal bioavailability, uniform distribution and efficient calcium supplementation to support animal health and feed efficiency.
- 1 μm and 2 μm GCC ensure high absorption rates, making calcium readily available for bone strength, eggshell formation and digestive support in poultry and livestock.
- 5 μm GCC provides a slower release of calcium, making it ideal for ruminant diets where gradual mineral absorption is beneficial.
-
Prevents clumping: Keeps feed and premixes dry and free-flowing.
-
Improves handling & storage: Enhances consistency and prevents moisture absorption.
-
1 μm, 2 μm for fine dispersion: These GCC grades are ideal for feed premixes because their fine particle size ensures even dispersion throughout the mixture. Fine dispersion is crucial in premixes to ensure consistent nutrient distribution in every portion of feed. These grades help maintain uniformity, reducing the risk of mineral deficiencies in livestock.
-
Reduces chemical fertilizer dependence: GCC naturally enhances soil quality without synthetic additives.
-
Environmentally safe: Supports sustainable farming by improving nutrient cycles.
Applications of GCC in Agriculture & Animal Feed
-
Used to regulate soil acidity and improve nutrient availability.
-
Prevents mineral deficiencies and enhances fertilizer effectiveness.
-
Coarser GCC 10 μm ensure better field application efficiency and long-term soil conditioning.

Enhances soil structure and reduces leaching of nutrients.
-
GCC Grades 5 μm, 10 μm allow optimal blending with fertilizers for gradual nutrient release.
-
Boosts bone strength and eggshell quality in poultry.
-
Aids digestion by acting as a buffer in ruminant diets.
-
1 μm, 2 μm, 5 μm GCC Grades ensure high bioavailability and even distribution in feed formulations.
-
Prevents feed from clumping during storage and handling.
-
Ensures even flow of feed ingredients in processing.
-
The fine texture of 1 μm and 2 μm GCC grades enhances the free-flowing properties in feed production.
-
Balances water pH in fish farms for optimal aquatic health.
-
Reduces toxic elements and stabilizes water chemistry.
-
Medium-sized particles of 5 μm and 10 μm allow controlled release and stable pH regulation.
