Smart Transition Pack
Protected Protein, Calcium Binder, Minerals & Methionine.
A powerful combination product incorporating protected protein, calcium binder, minerals & methionine to precisely manage dry cow feeding and ease the transition to lactation.
Available in 25kg bags.
The combination of these products together make managing dry cow feeding easier. In one bag we have everything you need to ensure that calving and the transition from the dry period to lactation is as smooth as possible.
Numerous studies and research have proven the benefits of supplementing the pre calving diet with high levels of by-pass protein. It helps ease the transition from the pre-calving diet to the lactating cow diet by building the protein reserves in the cow and stimulating feed intakes. Bypass protein in the dry period also helps to improve colostrum quality and quantity as well as supporting udder development and repair
75% of all pregnancies are lost between fertilization and placentation. Methionine fed in the dry & transition periods has been proven to support fertility by decreasing embryonic and foetal loses in this period. Multiple studies have also shown that methionine reduces inflammation and promotes good liver function and immune function. A combination of bypass protein & amino acids fed during the dry & transition period has proven to increase milk yield and solids in the subsequent lactation.
One of the most important factors to ensure a good start to the lactation, is the calcium level around calving. X-Zelit works as a calcium binder, stimulating the cow’s hormone system to create the optimum calcium balance at calving, slowing the release & avoiding the sudden rush for calcium when the cow calves down. Therefore, X-Zelit is an extremely effective product at reducing clinical & subclinical milk fever, the main causer of all metabolic disorders.
Protect trace elements and high vitamin concentration are also included, which are key to ensuring a healthy, functioning immune system, strong and lively calves, good muscle function and helping with all bodily functions.
