Description

MineralBoost Zinc has been specifically designed and registered as an Agricultural Compound and Veterinary Medicine (ACVM) for the prevention of facial eczema in cows.

Nutritional Benefits

MineralBoost Zinc is a rumen-dispersible granule containing zinc oxide for the prevention of facial eczema. MineralBoost Zinc has the added benefits of calcium, magnesium and sodium, all key minerals for production, feed efficiency and heat stress commonly seen in dairy cows over the summer months.

The rumen dispersible granule is a patented technology designed to exhibit the benefits of a granule during mixing and freight (less dust, less segregation, less waste), while dispersing into ultra-fine powder once inside the rumen ensuring the best mineral uptake. MineralBoost Zinc is a very convenient and cost-effective method of adding zinc to animal feed to prevent facial eczema.

Feed Storage on Farm

As with any grain or meal feed products need to be kept dry as moisture combined with heat can cause fungi to grow. Common on farm storage methods are: in a shed or unused fertiliser bin; in a covered pit; on a concrete pad; or in a cutting, covered with plastic sheet and tyres. Most feed should be used reasonably expediently (within 40 - 50 days). The longer you plan to store feed products the better your storage facilities need to be.
