Supplementary feed for calves

Diarrhoeal diseases are among the most economically significant calf diseases. In the first weeks of life, they account for about 75-80% of all calf diseases (BOTHER and BUDDE, 1992; BRÄNDLE, 2006).
In the following, we present a selection of high-quality dietary supplement s that you can use when there is a risk of diarrhoea to support the intestinal health of your calves:

Here you will find dietary supplements for intestinal health

Electrolyte and buffer concentrate

Electrolyte drinks with buffer substances can be life-saving for diarrhoea calves! They work against metabolic acidosis and against dehydration. Agrolyte stabilises the water and electrolyte balance during diarrhoea and sweating. The electrolytes contained compensate for the losses that occur during diarrhoea and sweating. The buffer substance contained regulates the blood pH value.

Powder to enhance the milk feed
 
Agrobac-K Powder can be used to enhance the milk feed if there is a risk of, during and after digestive disorders, as it supports the physiological digestion of calves. It is stirred directly into the milk feed and contains electrolytes, yeast products, easily digestible carbohydrates and bentonite.

Buffer and electrolyte bolus

Blood over-acidity is the cause of unwillingness to drink, weakness and being stuck during diarrhoea. The Bufferlyte Bolus for calves contains the buffer substance sodium bicarbonate and regulates the blood pH. When the blood pH is in order, the calves are fitter and drink milk and electrolyte drinks again. The input is safe and child's play.

Electrolytes are the basis for internal balance. During heat, transport or illness, calves lose not only fluid but also important minerals. The product Elektrolyt is an electrolyte solution for milk drinks and contains a balanced mixture of sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium. It helps to compensate for electrolyte losses and supports the performance, vitality, well-being and health of calves.

The fermented, prebiotic feed concentrate made from Jerusalem artichoke tubers supports healthy intestinal flora, binds toxins and improves nutrient absorption. By stimulating the immune system and displacing harmful micro-organisms, it can prevent calf diarrhoea and significantly enhance vitality.

Liquid concentrate for acidification

Surlac Plus can be used to safely acidify and "pre-digest" the milk drinker. Acidification below pH 5.5 inhibits the growth of certain bacteria (e.g. E.coli). As a result, the drinker remains very well tolerated by the calves even below 39°C. This is important for ad libitum, storage and cold drinking. Surlac Plus also contains vital iron. Iron promotes blood formation and infection defence and helps to increase the calves' vitality.

The 73 % formic acid ensures reliable acidification of the calf milk, which means that the drinker is predigested and remains well tolerated even at temperatures below 39 °C. A pH value below 5.5 specifically inhibits harmful bacteria such as E. coli - ideal for ad lib, stored and cold drinks.

Dietary supplement feed for an optimal iron, selenium and vitamin supply for calves after birth
 
The highly available iron contained in Ferrovital-K Paste supports blood formation and defence against infection. Vitamins A and E strengthen the intestinal mucosa and defences. The valuable herbal oils in the paste prevent digestive disorders. The portioned injectors make dosing and feeding particularly easy.

The antibodies produced by the chicken (IgY) function similarly to the antibodies produced by mammals (IgG). IgY can be absorbed orally by the calf via egg powder and act locally in the intestine. The supplementary feeds Globigen Colostrum, Globigen DiaStop and Globigen CalfPaste contain these valuable, functional egg immunoglobulins and can support the intestinal health of your calves.

Here you will find dietary supplements for intestinal health according to the Globigen concept.
