- Product Highlights
- Developed specifically for use in dairy and beef cattle.
- Availa®Plus, when fed as a component of a specific DD Formula, provides a nutritional approach to sustaining the animal's foot health. In dairy cattle, the DD Formula should be fed to non-lactating animals only.
- In beef cattle, Availa®Plus is a great source of trace minerals for both lactating and non-lactating animals, either with or without the complete DD Formula.
- Research shows that this trace mineral program works internally to enhance the animal’s health.
- Benefits
- Proper nutrition, including a diet containing essential trace minerals, has been shown to sustain welfare and overall health resulting in greater profitability.
- Research shows that feeding Availa®Plus as part of a well-fortified diet can support a healthy animal. Healthy animals are better equipped to maintain good foot health compared to reactive approaches, such as footbaths and antibiotics.
