Cows (transitional period)

This is the most important stage characterized by transition of an animal from the interlactation phase to the lactation one. Proper preparation of a cow for days in milk during this period ensures the greatest productivity of the animal and preservation of its health. After calving, the animal experiences stress caused by feed, delivery, hormonal and metabolic changes in its body. During the transition period, the metabolism of the cow is rebuilt for lactation. Animals consume more feed, however, to ensure health and high milk productivity, they need feed with high content of available energy, proteins and other nutrients.

The main purpose of the transition period is to organize proper feeding of animals, prepare their gastrointestinal tracts and ruminal microflora to the change in the diet structure, the ability to consume highly nutritious food during lactation and improve the immune status of the body.

Possible issues

• Energy deficit in animal bodies.
  

• Metabolic disease (milk fever, fatty liver syndrome and ketosis).

• Digestive problems (subclinical acidosis).

• Postpartum gynecological diseases (retention of afterbirth, inflammation of the uterus).

• Udder disease (mastitis).

• Sharp weight loss in animals.

Solution in feeding optimisation

• FEKORD-2004-S is an enzyme complex. It is used to activate ruminal digestion, increase energy nutrition and better feed digestion. Contributes to the increase in digestibility of fiber and the prevention of acidosis. To be applied with complete food at a dose of 2 kg per ton.

• GUMINOBIOTIC is a powerful immunomodulator agent based on humin acids. It contributes to the decrease in the number of diseases and promotes resistance of the body, increase in the level of immunoglobulins in colostral milk.  Prevents the occurrence of mastitis and gynecological diseases. To be applied with feed mixture and complete food at a dose of 2 to 6 liters per ton.    

• DIATOKS-ULTRA is a mycotoxins sorbent (yeast cell walls, tripoli, activated sapropel) providing a high level of protection against mycotoxins and causal agents. To be used with complete food at a dose of 1 to 2 kg per ton.

• TETRABIOTIC-SPK is a probiotic (Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus licheniformis и Enterococcus faecallis). It is used for ruminal digestion optimisation, prophylaxis of gastrointestinal diseases and limb diseases, replaces antibiotics. To be applied with complete food at a dose of 0,5 kg per ton.

Results of feeding programme application:

• preparation of the animal for calving and the subsequent change of diet;

• prevention of metabolic diseases (alimentary dystrophy, ketosis, acidosis, liver obesity, maternity paresis);

• rapid animal recovery after calving;

• correction of the energy nutritional value of the feed substrate;

• rumen stimulation aimed at intensive feed consumption;

• maintaining optimal animal weight;

• reduced animal death;

• preparing animals for subsequent insemination.
