Our Approach

Due to the physiology and structure of bovines — which is unique in the animal kingdom — cattle health issues are also unique. With their four-chambered stomachs and a surprising susceptibility to heat, cattle require special care, monitoring and handling to maintain optimum health and longevity.

Care considerations and feed requirements for cattle depend on the breed of cattle, their intended purpose and other factors such as the health, age, gender, milk production and breeding status of individual animals.

The geographical region and seasonal weather conditions should also be taken into consideration. Even minimum daily water requirements for cattle should be evaluated regularly according to herd activity levels, pasture size, the height of the pasture grass, shelter and shade availability, the number of animals in the herd and changing environmental conditions.

We provide a range of gut health solutions for cattle, based on their stage in life and what they will be used for:

Dairy Cattle:

by implementing our solutions we support their unique stresses from calving and lactating, especially after calving and during the first 21 days of lactation. Moreover our solutions reduce the effect of high summertime temperatures with the increase of milk production.

Calf:

by implementing our solutions we support the young calves undeveloped immune systems.

 

Beef Cattle:

we have specific solutions for the animals that are destined for the marketplace, to get higher body scores, better meat yield and quality.
