Lactation, the dry period and calving are distinct stages in dairy cow feeding. Select complementary feeds for the relevant stage and the existing ration.
Mineral supplementation
When selecting a mineral supplement, consider the composition of the forage and the other ration ingredients already in use. Compare the declared contents and follow the feeding instructions for each product.
Find the right product
Check the intended species, feeding instructions and the other ingredients in the ration. Consult the individual product pages for instructions on use. The Zehentmayer team can help with questions about product selection.
