Availa®Sow is a nutritional feed ingredient for swine that contains a combination of organic zinc, manganese and copper. As the recommended Feet First program product, Availa-Sow is specifically formulated to help optimize foot health and reproductive performance of sows, gilts and boars. The trace minerals zinc, copper and manganese are required by swine for numerous functions, including: immunity, reproduction and hoof integrity. In addition, when an animal has the proper balance of trace minerals it is better able to cope with the challenging effects of stress. Availa-Sow, from Zinpro Performance Minerals®, is built on a unique, patented molecule that consists of one metal ion bound to one amino acid ion – called a metal amino acid complex. Zinpro Performance Minerals provide the highest biological efficacy of any trace mineral products on the market, which means more of the minerals are absorbed by the animal to deliver their full benefit. For more than 45 years, Zinpro Performance Minerals have delivered positive animal performance responses and a strong return on investment in operations around the world. A nutritional feed ingredient for animal feed. When used as a commercial feed ingredient, it must be declared as zinc amino acid complex, copper amino acid complex and manganese amino acid complex.
