Copper is an essential mineral required for the formation of 10 vital enzymes: body, bone, pigmentation and nervous system functions. Insufficient copper levels can affect reproduction and growth rates.

Dose rate:

Cattle: 2-4 mL/cow/day (based on a 500 kg animal).

Deer: 0.5mL-1mL/head/day

Pasture Spraying:

Bell-Booth Copper can also be pasture sprayed at 2-3 litres/ha depending on copper status. Apply to 1/3 - 1/2 of the required area. Application one week after grazing gives best results. Apply on it’s own or refer to Bell-Booth Copper Chelate if adding other compounds.

WARNING

CAUTION: COPPER STATUS IN SHEEP

Copper status in the liver of sheep may be quite variable. There is a risk of copper poisoning, resulting in death, following copper supplementation, in some instances. Care should be taken if exposing sheep to copper-treated pasture.
