VitaMinBuf Green Pasture Supplement

VitaMinBuf Green Pasture Supplement

  • Concentrate pellets for balancing grain-based rations
  • To boost vitamins, minerals & buffer
Rumen Buffer
6%
For reducing the risk of acidosis
Anionic Salts
5%
For reducing the risk of hypocalcaemia
Calcium
14%
For bone health & frame develoment
Magnesium
7%
For growth of lambs & milk production in ewe

Palatable and nutrient enriched pellets for boosting the supply of vitamins, macro and micro-minerals, salt and anionic salts, in the diets of ewes and lambs.

Added rumen buffer and yeast help maintain healthy rumen function which helps reduce the risk of acidosis and improve digestion, whilst the addition of organic minerals is beneficial for ovarian health, fertility and reproductive performance.

Working in combination, calcium, magnesium and vitamin D, help build bone calcium reserves for the prevention of hypocalcaemia and hypomagnesia.

  • To boost vitamins, minerals & buffer
  • For balancing nutritional deficiencies
  • For adding to grain. Ideal for grazing flocks

Available in 25kg Bags, 1000kg Bulker Bags & Bulk

Nutrition That Stacks Up

Macro-Minerals

As green pastures and crops contain marginal sodium, magnesium and calcium, additional quantities of each are required for optimal health. Sodium supplied from salt is vital for the absorption of magnesium which improves muscle function and aids calcium mobilisation. Calcium and phosphorus are critical for frame development, strong bones and milk production. Replenishing calcium reserves in ewes is essential for foetal frame development and minimising the risk of hypocalcaemia.

 

Organic Micro-Minerals

Chromium supports glucose absorption by facilitating the effect of insulin on tissues. Cobalt is essential for the microbial synthesis of vitamin B12, a component of the energy production system. Selenium aids reproductive function and immunity. Copper and manganese support bone and cartilage development. Zinc is vital for hoof health and helps reduce lameness. Organic versus inorganic sources of trace minerals are more easily absorbed, thereby providing better nutrition.

 

Rumen Buffer

An optimal rumen pH improves fibre digestion and maintains healthy rumen function. Buffer helps stabilise rumen pH, significantly reducing the risk of acidosis (grain poisoning), which can cause poor feed intake, compromise energy production and cause permanent rumen damage.

 

Anionic Salts

Anionic Salts improve calcium availability and utilisation which is essential for the reduction of hypocalcaemia (milk fever) in late pregnancy. Low levels of calcium in blood can result in reduced muscle and nerve function, and predispose ewes to disorders such as pregnancy toxaemia and dystocia (diffcult lambing).

Vitamins

Vitamin A benefits eye health and reproductive wellbeing whilst vitamin D is critical for calcium absorption. Vitamin E helps support immune, cardiovascular and circulatory functions, and in combination with selenium it assists muscle development. Water soluble B-group vitamins are vital for healthy metabolism.

 

Yeast

Yeast improves fibre digestion, promotes feed intake and enhances the absorption of nutrients, especially in sheep under stress. Yeast is beneficial for rumen microflora, helping to stabilise rumen pH and improve rumen function, which increases nutrient retention, making more available for use for growth and lactation.

 

Betaine

Betaine, a naturally occurring compound, helps the liver in coping with the high demands for energy needed during late pregnancy and lactation. It aids energy generation from fat reserves which assists in reducing pregnancy toxaemia in pre-lambing ewes, whilst helping to minimise the e-ect of heat stress.

 

Zeolite

A clay-like compound which aids digestion and nutrient absorption, zeolite has also been shown to reduce the toxic e-ects of high ammonia levels in rumen fluid, in sheep grazing lush green feed. Zeolite minerals bind excess ammonium ions and gradually release them back into the rumen environment for use by microbes.

 

Feeding Instructions

Provide free access to straw, hay and/or dry forage. Ensure livestock have access to clean, cool and fresh water. CopRice VitaMinBuf™ Green Feed Concentrate Pellets are not a complete feed, they have been developed to be fed to livestock in conjunction with other ration ingredients.

Withholding Periods:

Sheep Meat – Nil
Sheep Dairy – DO NOT USE in lactating ewes where milk or milk products may be used for human consumption.
