Cal Mag provides a good source of dietary magnesium. The magnesium in Cal Mag is highly available during digestion. Due to its poor palatability, Cal Mag is normally included in TMR, Minerals, Mineral Buckets, compounds, blends or premixes.

Dairy cows
Small amounts are used in winter diets. The major use, however, is with Dairy Cows at turnout. Feed 50 – 60 grammes per head per day, commencing about 10 days prior to turn out, to help prevent Grass Staggers (Hypomagnesaemia). magnesium is not readily stored in the body so continue feeding during high-risk periods, eg: lush Spring grass
Dry Cows

Dry Cows generally have a higher magnesium level than Lactating Cows. This magnesium can be supplied by including Cal Mag in the diet or feeding Dry Cow minerals which have a high level of magnesium. It may sometimes be used in conjunction with magnesium chloride.

Suckler Cows & Beef
As with Dairy Cows, Cal Mag is primarily used at turn out.

Typical feed rates are 50 grammes/head/day.

Optimal rumen function is essential in order to maximise performance as well as allowing maximum utilisation of low-cost forages. Rumen function can be impaired by feeding high cereal rations, acidic silages, short chop forage and starchy forages which in turn can lead to im-paired digestion, reduced intakes and poor performance (e.g. reduced butterfat). Feeding Sodium Bicarbonate assists the saliva in its buffering capacity, thus reducing the risk of large drops in rumen pH which can lead to acidosis.

This is practically demonstrated with:

• Improved forage intakes
• Effective fibre digestion
• Higher milk yields
• Enhanced milk quality, increased butterfat
• Improved feed conversion and liveweight gain

• Contains live yeast to support rumen function
• Promotes an optimal rumen environment
• Calcium derived from four different sources, including highly palatable and easy-to-absorb milk calcium which supports muscle tone of the uterus
• Magnesium to help the body absorb calcium
• Added potassium required for energy metabolism
• Includes Niacin which is essential for energy metabolism
• Betaine promotes intracellular hydration
• Vitamin E and Zinc chelate to support animal health during stressful periods
• Highly palatable and non-abrasive formula

• Contains 30 Billion CFU’s of live yeast cultures
• Includes the recommended 6 grams of Niacin which is essential for energy metabolism
• Vitamin E supports animal health during stressful periods
• Promotes an optimal rumen environment
• Supports optimum feed effi ciency and encourages dry matter intakes

• Contains a specifi cally selected hind gut DFMs (probiotic)
• Essential Oil as a natural antioxidant
• Offers a natural antimicrobial effect

• Scientifically formulated for optimal osmolarity, tonicity, acidifi cation and energy, to provide the right hydration at the right time giving calves the best chance to reach their genetic potential
• Corrects dehydration and electrolyte abnormalities (Na, K, Cl) facilitating the absorption of sodium
• Produces and provides energy
• Maintains a low abomasal pH supporting a healthy digestive tract
• Nutrient dense liquid – providing ease of supplementation with no mixing required

Fed as a buffer to reduce rumen acidity.
It can increase dry matter intake, rumen microbial protein production and fibre digestion, resulting in increased milk production and milkfat

Animals that are deficient in salt will often be seen chewing wood or attempting to drink urine (both sources of salt). Lump Rock Salt offers a convenient and natural way of providing salt for your livestock.

Large lumps of raw salt ranging from 5 – 35kgs in weight. The colour may be grey, red, brown, or white – according to the source.

• Sodium 40%
• Potassium 1.25%
• Calcium 0.13%
• Magnesium 0.005%

It is highly effective as a rumen buffer and stabilises pH at optimum rumen pH over long periods. Acid Buff works in harmony with the animal’s natural endogenous system for buffering excess acid leading to a stable and productive rumen environment. A healthier rumen can lead to improved production parameters.
