Abstract: A ruminant feed composition having a granulated core of L-lysine sulfate having a granular size of about 0.3 mm to about 3.0 mm, and two or more layers of a coating material surrounding the core, the coating material including a vegetable oil that is at least partially hydrogenated, and a modifying agent present in an amount of from about 0.5 wt % to about 10 wt % of a final product weight, the modifying agent containing at least one of stearic acid, oleic acid, lecithin, and palm oil. The coating material has a melting temperature in a range of from about 50° C. to about 80° C. The weight % ratio of core material to coating material is from 50:50 to 90:10. The composition exhibits a rumen bypass rate of at least 50% and an intestinal digestibility rate of at least 70%.

Abstract: A composition has a core of at least one fertilizer substance and at least one layer of a coating material surrounding the core. The core may contain nitrogen and the coating material may include one or more linear, saturated aliphatic monocarboxylic acids.
