A powerful powder formulation of seven trace elements, Selenium, Copper, Cobalt, Zinc, Manganese, Boron, Sodium - Intense 240 is specifically formualted to address the needs of high-performing cows to support milk production and reproduction.
Studies show that for a dairy cow to build up liver reserves best results are achieved by adopting a 'little and often' approach. Therefore cows grazed on properties operating a Dosatron Inline Dispenser system are able to gain a production and performance advantage as the farmer is able to instigate an early and consistent Intense 240 dosing regime during the late stages of pregnancy.
Intensive programme (240 days): 20g/cow/day for a 500kg animal.
Begin at drying off and continue dosing until 30 days after the end of mating. To achieve reserve status it is imperative to start dosing the cow at drying-off.
In-calf programme (180 days): 20g/cow/day for a 500kg animal.
Start dosing once cows are back on the home farm, continue until 30 days after mating has finished. In situations where cows are grazed off-farm, it is imperative to start treatment at a higher-dose-rate when cows return to the farm. More intensive dosing will assist the cows to build up accelerated trace element status.
For cows wintered off-farm ad lib feed Bell-Booth Crumble or Bell-Booth JustBeet it to maintain trace element status in dry cows.
