Nutex Sweet limits negative energy balance
Limit negative energy balance… and give your newborn calves the best possible start! Newborn calves have an energy deficit, given that they need much more energy for milk production than they can absorb from rationsNewborn calves have an energy deficit, given that they need much more energy for milk production than they can absorb from rations. To achieve high milk production, cows have to send a lot of glucose to the udder.
Cows take all the glucose in their system and send it to the udder to produce milk. The problem is that their other tissues also require energy, and there is no glucose left for them. Cows solve this problem by tapping into alternative energy sources, breaking down protein (muscles) and fat, causing their overall condition to diminish. Cows must therefore be given more support than usual during early lactation. A high feed intake in the beginning is the best guarantee for problem-free lactation.
A negative energy balance is not something that can be totally avoided, but it can be limited with a high intake of dry matter and concentrated rations. Therefore, you absolutely must choose the most suitable production feed! Nutex Sweet, made from extruded flaxseed and bypass sugars. Limit the consequences of the negative energy balance. Nutex Sweet offers:
Reduced loss of condition
