Proper feeding of cows in the periparturient period guarantees a proper start to lactation, without ketosis and other metabolic diseases, and high performance of dairy cows throughout lactation. Specialized mixes for cattle of very good quality, with higher protein and energy content, should become the basis of nutrition during this period.

Delicia + Finezja specialty blends are just such a duo, perfect for the start of lactating cows.

We propose an innovative idea of feeding cows in the periparturient period with the use of two complementary feed mixtures. This solution takes advantage of the synergistic effect of natural, health-promoting compounds contained in the feed mixtures: Delicia and Finesia.

Delicia’s job is to prepare cows for childbirth, healthy lactation and repeat pregnancy.

The feed contains glucoplastic agents, the intake of which protects cows from ketosis and improves their appetite. In addition, it introduces a high dose of β-carotene into the feed, which improves the immune effect of colostrum and raises blood levels of the pregnancy hormone (progesterone), which aids cow reproduction, improving immunity and herd fertility.

Due to the increasing productivity at this time, in order to improve the profitability of production, it is recommended to add Finezja mix to the ration – it is a high concentration of protein and energy – more profit from milk production.

Influences stable and high milk production. Brings significant savings from reduced concentrate feed consumption, healthy calves and calving cows, and high milk production.

Delicia should be administered three weeks before calving. Then continue feeding for about 100 days after calving. Due to the increasing productivity at this time, in order to improve the profitability of production, it is recommended to add Finezja mix to the ration.

– Remember the water

– Provide ventilation

– Use feed additives

The digestive capacity of cows also influences TMR intake. Feed additives such as Rumba Active can come to our aid. It is a unique combination of live yeast cultures and mannan oligosaccharides.

The formula also contains extracts of oregano, cloves, cinnamon and chili. Careful selection of individual components causes the rumen bacterial flora to stabilize and the pH to return to 6.2, improving feed intake.

Restricted rumination results in less saliva secretion, which is associated with reduced production of acidic sodium carbonate. The solution to this problem is Agro Buffer TYTAN, which, in addition to supplementing the aforementioned substance, introduces a natural buffer derived from marine algae into the ration to protect the rumen from a drop in pH.

– Take care of the quality of the feed you are feeding

– Increase the frequency of feeding.

The use of good silage-making practices and the introduction of biological silage additives will keep losses to a minimum. The result will be silage of the highest quality, stable and highly digestible.

Learn about the advantages of using ensilage:

• rapid reduction of the pH in silage to levels that guarantee the development of normal silo microflora
• improve digestibility of ensiled material
• Reducing abnormal fermentation, e.g. toward butyric acid, and excluding alcoholic fermentation
• Stabilization of silage after opening the silo and during feeding
• to exclude feed overheating and limit further DM losses
• Maximize nutrient availability and reduce proteolysis (protein loss) in silage during the entire forage storage process in the silo and after it is opened
• Improve forage palatability and increase DM intake through improved organoleptic quality of silage
• Reducing the presence of mold and reducing the risk of mycotoxin contamination of silage.

The answer comes to mind when you translate the product name – KILLACID (kill acid). The mixture is recommended in states of threat of subclinical rumen acidosis. Killacid allows the rumen to recover from acidosis and return to the desired condition.

Many farmers use KILLACID preventively and cannot imagine the composition of their ration without these live yeast cultures. They are aware that by using them they are strengthening their herds throughout lactation. They gain high feed intake and utilisation parameters and, consequently, productivity and herd health. The beneficial effect on the microbial breakdown of fibres is a valuable tool to maximise the feed portion of the ration which also has a significant impact on production economics.

Dosing KILLACID

The administration of our yeast is easy. It can be used as an ingredient in mixtures prepared on the farm, directly for the cows or as an ingredient in prepared feed in the feed wagon.

KILLACID is administered at 100g per day

When using Killacid, it is very important to understand that live yeast cultures do not multiply intensively and do not have the ability to colonise the digestive tract. This is an unnatural environment for them. However, with constant daily administration, the probiotic effect mentioned above takes place.

Advantages of the feed additive – KILLACID:

• Increase digestibility of the feed ration,
• Biochemical stabilisation of the rumen environment,- Increase milk yield,
• Improve fat and protein parameters,
• Maintain proper animal condition by improving health parameters and reproduction.

We recommend the proven desiccant with drying action – Mistral. Dedicated to all livestock species.

With Mistral you will gain:

• effectively dry and warm the newborn animals, thus speeding up colostrum intake
• protect and disinfect umbilical cords, tails and abrasions – speeding up their healing
• dry bedding, stalls and farrowing racks
• minimise the development of pathogens in the environment
• reduce ammonia and insect infestations.

FreshControl TMR is a state-of-the-art mineral supplementary feed, designed to protect the TMR under all conditions. It is not just an additive – it is an effective feed barrier. The formulation protects against secondary fermentation, fungal and mould growth and stabilises the silage after opening. As a result, the TMR retains its freshness, taste and nutritional value, resulting in higher feed intake, reduced stress in cows and better milk yield.

FreshControl TMR also helps prevent the formation of mycotoxins, giving farmers greater control over the quality of their feed. It is ideal for those who view every kilogram of feed as a real investment in herd health and performance.
