Weaning is a challenging time for young cattle, as the stress of cow separation can affect growth, overall health and productivity. With the right nutritional support, you can help your weaners adapt smoothly and thrive, because a strong start means a productive future!
A nutritional solution for weaning challenges
Our tailored starter supplement, uPRO WEANER, is designed to give calves the extra support they need during this demanding phase. It provides a balanced blend of key nutrients to:
- Reduce weaning stress: Magnesium helps keep calves calm and stable, making the adjustment period smoother.
- Supports digestion: By optimising energy metabolism, uPRO WEANER ensures that calves maintain a strong appetite and consistent energy levels for continued growth.
- Promote consistent growth: The water-soluble supplement is enriched with phosphorus, sulphur, and nitrogen – vital components that support strong bone development, muscle function, and overall animal production.
- Strengthens immunity: Essential trace elements in the formula help boost the calves’ natural defences, ensuring they remain healthy and resilient.
The power of magnesium
Magnesium is a standout ingredient in our formulation, playing a crucial role in helping calves manage stress and maintain calm. In simple terms, magnesium:
- Supports calmness: By aiding nerve and muscle function, it helps reduce the physical impacts of stress.
- Enhances nutrient absorption: It assists in the efficient conversion of feed – mainly forage – into energy, contributing to steady growth.
- Boosts energy metabolism: Adequate magnesium levels ensure that calves get the energy they need for daily activities.
Effortless supplementation
Delivered via drinking water, with the help of the uDOSE™, our livestock water supplementation technology, uPRO WEANER ensures that every animal receives the precise amount of nutrients needed without any extra hassle.
Key benefits include:
- Automatic and accurate supplementation: Reduces the labour involved in supplementation and ensures each animal gets the target daily requirement, as animals drink proportionally to their body weight.
- Remote monitoring and adjustment: Allows farmers to tailor flow rates to suit your specific livestock and environmental conditions.
