Applying these technologies to harvesting and processing lucerne, clover, cereal and other fodder crops, enables Fodder King to produce consistently higher average quality fodder under a wider range of weather conditions than previously possible. This represents a world first for Australia and results in graded, branded and differentiated fodder products that meet stringent quality specifications.
These specialised hay making processes yield much greater productivity of capital and labour, enabling the company to be more competitive in satisfying its customers needs. As a result demand outstrips the Companys ability to supply by a large margin.
The economies of scale, made possible by the new technologies, will boost the profitability of the Company as production volume grows. In the meantime, its own production is supplemented by a product broking service.
Fodder King has met the challenge to overcome the limitation of weather, which normally restricts production to a small portion of the day and only under ideal conditions. Fodder King has successfully broken this barrier, producing high quality hay consistently throughout the day.
Fodder King has made it easier and less expensive for customers to buy fodder. Only Fodder King customers can be confident of delivery when specifying the type, quality and packaging format of fodder they require.
The market for fodder products in Australia is valued at more than A$750 million per annum ex-farm. The Australian fodder industry is fragmented, with numerous small producers, traders and distributors. Fodder King has the potential to capture a large percentage of the market by utilising its unique competitive advantages, including customer preference for the Company's products relative to its competitors.
Asian countries import in excess of A$900 million of forage products per annum. Little of this is presently sourced from Australia. Fodder King plans to expand into these export markets. Already, regular orders are being received from South East Asia. Trial shipments of lucerne hay have been successfully delivered to the Middle East and Japan. As Fodder King is now receiving regular overseas enquiries, sourcing a sufficient supply of fodder crops is all that is retarding a rapid growth in exports.
Demand for Fodder King's products, both domestically and overseas, continues to exceed the Company's current production capacity.
Securing sufficient supply of crops to ensure Fodder King's growth, requires successfully introducing change to the established methods of operation currently employed by farmers in Australia.
When the livestock industries experience feed shortages, demand for fodder increases, as do prices.
As the Company becomes larger, it will operate in different regions of Australia. This geographic diversity is expected to increasingly shield it from regional risks and climatic variations.
