GROWTH & PERFORMANCE POTENTIATOR FOR
CATTLE & DEER REQUIRING COPPER

A comprehensive organic chelate, trace element / vitamin drench, providing both short and long term benefit.


ADVANCED NUTRITION TECHNOLOGY

An animal can only perform to the level of the greatest deficiency or imbalance in its diet. All forage based diets contain imbalances and consequently most stock never exceed 75% of their genetic potential in terms of growth, fertility, development of immunity etc,

For trace elements to be available to stock, they must be of high quality and must link up with one or more amino acids or peptides in the rumen, prior to being absorbed through the gut wall into the blood stream. Stock are not ideally equipped to effect this "link up" and a significant proportion of trace elements and vitamins supplied in conventional form, pass straight through the body and are excreted.

In Liqui Thrive Cattle, more than 60 micronutrients, including the whole spectrum of trace elements and vitamins, are organically bonded to essential amino acids in a unique fermentation process, during manufacture. The resulting chelates are totally available to the animal, providing a means of precise dosing without waste. The long term response/benefit to a single dose is thought to be a reflection of the retention of the elements in this form in the soft tissues of the body.

INDICATIONS

All cattle and deer on forage based diets will respond to Liqui Thrive Cattle, especially in areas of Copper deficiency, whether naturally occurring or induced by the presence, in excess, of elements such as, molybdenum and sulphur which have the effect of 'locking-up' the copper and making it unavailable to stock, even though it is actually present in the diet. This locking-up effect can prevent the utilisation of copper even when given by inter-muscular injection, whereas there is a growing wealth of evidence that Liqui Thrive Cattle is effective even in these circumstances.

BEEF CATTLE & DEER - SUCKLER HERDS & STORES

Dose cows and hinds 4-6 weeks before calving and 10/14 days before serving
Dose calves at weaning
Dose stores/yearlings at turn-out and housing
Fatteners 1-3 months before killing
Bulls - every 3 months
Stags - before and after rutting

DAIRY CATTLE & FOLLOWERS

Liqui Thrive Cattle is extremely beneficial as an aid to the development of dairy heifers required to achieve physical maturity for calving at 2 years. These heifers should be dosed (in milk) at weaning and then approx. every 6 months.

Dairy cows receiving Cow Care Fertility Supplement may be dosed in the third month of pregnancy to provide an on-going source of trace elements and vitamins in mid pregnancy. Cows not receiving Cow Care should be dosed 4-6 weeks before calving and in the third month of pregnancy.

FREQUENCY OF DOSING

Normally 3-6 months
Young stock, those recovering from illness or heavy parasite attack, or high performance cattle, may respond to more frequent dosing, but a twice yearly routine has proved highly effective on most farms, including many on which acute deficiencies have been experienced previously.

N.B.

Whilst calves are being liquid fed, Liqui Thrive Cattle should be added to the milk or milk substitute, splitting the dose over two or more days. If very young calves are drenched, great care must be taken to avoid any material getting into the rumen. This is best achieved by dosing when the oesophageal groove is open, during or immediately after sucking.

TOMMORROW's TECHNOLOGY TODAY

In addition to the recognised 'essential' trace elements, Copper, Colbalt, Selenium, Zinc, Manganese, Iodine etc. Liqui Thrive Cattle also contains over 50 other elements extracted and organically chelated through a patented fermentation process. Many of these additional elements are only required in minute quantities but are now being recognised as being beneficial. Trials on a wide range of additional elements are being carried out, with some revelations expected in the fields of both human and livestock nutrition.

All these elements are included in Liqui Thrive Cattle.
