Protect Calves from Day 1 with Bovatec
One way to get early protection is feed Bovatec (lasalocid) in a milk replacer. Bovatec is the only ionophore approved to control coccidiosis in dairy calves from birth. Bovatec prevents intestinal damage by killing coccidia during early stages of their lifecycle. This permits optimal intestinal absorption of nutrients needed for growth and overall good health. Also, Bovatec works in the rumen, improving energy and protein utilisation to help replacement heifers meet height and weight targets faster.
Because Bovatec can be added to milk or milk replacer, even the youngest calves can be protected when they are most vulnerable to coccidiosis. When using whole milk or a milk replacer without an anti-coccidial add NRM First Milk to protect calves from day 1.
Independent research has shown that at 12 weeks, Bovatec-fed calves showed an average increase in growth of 11kg (11.7%) over calves not receving Bovatec
Bovatec is included in all NRM calf feed products, including NRM Moozlee+, NRM GrowUp+, Ready Rumen+, GrowUp Finisher+ and Phaze 14 calf milk replacer and NRM First Milk wholemilk additive. Bovatec is licensed under the Animal Remedies Act (1967) No. 4395
Use Bovatec for faster growth and protection against coccidiosis.
