A process for producing a nutrient supplement powder is provided. The process forms a powder into a plastic mass which is not completely molten. The plastic mass is then formed into an elongated shape and allowed to cool to set to a solid state. The solid is then comminuted to obtain a powder having a desirable particle size, e.g. not more than 5% by weight through a 120-mesh sieve and not more than 5% by weight retained on a 14-mesh sieve.
