When to treat?
TRACE MINERALS AND THEIR ROLE IN FARMING
The importance of trace minerals and their effects on livestock health are well known in New Zealand. Consequently, many farmers now routinely use trace mineral products in a well-managed programme that provides many obvious benefits such as increased productivity and improved stock health.
WHY DO WE NEED THEM?
Trace minerals are essential to normal body function and supplementation is critical at times of high demand, such as calving, mating and drying off. Trace minerals have various roles that affect multiple body systems, which is why supplementation has proven wide ranging effects on immunity, growth, reproductive performance and overall animal health.
WHEN DO WE NEED THEM?
High demand periods can be times of animal stress and often reduced feed intake. Calving, fawning, mating, weaning, transport, or early life are all examples of periods where the demand for trace minerals often exceeds the levels of these nutrients found in the diet and needed by the animal at these critical times. When stock become mineral deficient, this can potentially cause short term reductions in reproductive performance, growth rate and lead to higher levels of disease. Targeting these high demand periods with injectable trace minerals will help to reduce these negative effects.
Key trace minerals such as those included in InjectaMax (manganese, zinc, copper, selenium and B12) help to supplement the animal and produce the best response when administered BEFORE any high demand period. This injectable product safely and quickly boosts the levels of these trace minerals, resulting in peak stock performance.
OTHER SUPPLEMENTATION
Not to be used concurrently with any other form of copper or selenium supplementation, or administered at the same time as any other treatment e.g. drenching, vaccination. Consult your veterinarian for further advice.
By using InjectaMax, you can be confident that you have provided your stock with a supplementary source of trace minerals that is rapidly available to the animal in a form that can be put to use to provide all the benefits offered by these products.
