Winterlek 50
CLASS PROTEIN, MINERAL AND TRACE-MINERAL SUPPLEMENT FOR RUMINANTS
REG NO. V19830 ACT 36 OF 1947
- Cost-effective ready-mixed winter lick.
- Feed to cattle on high-quality winter pastures or maize stubble.
- Contains 50% protein (partially natural protein).
- Feed freely to cattle with access to sufficient dry matter, not where winter pastures are limited or of low quality.
- Prevent lick intakes that are too high.
- Molasses have been included to ensure a dust-free, palatable product.
- The inclusion of a small amount of maize supplies sufficient energy to stimulate the rumen microbes for maximum fibre digestion and NPN utilisation.
- Mix with maize meal to produce production lick.
- Supply supplementation on stubble fields, and aim for the stimulation of intake and the creation of a better environment for the rumen organisms so that effective digestion can takeplace. Supplementation should not be seen as a substitute for natural pastures.
