RU-MAX®

Ru-Max® is a groundbreaking combination of live yeast, yeast cultures and enzyme technology to improve feed efficiency in all classes of dairy cattle.

Designed to treat forages and mixed rations, it improves digestibility and nutrient availability, promotes rumen balance and rumen efficiency.

Increase Dry Matter Digestibility and Reduce Methane Production

Results from a UK and Irish trial showed a significant improvement in dry matter digestibility over 24 hours.

This increases nutrient availability from the ration, which can lead to an improvement in health and fertility. It can also mean an improvement in efficiency, either through increased productivity or a reduction in dry matter required for the same output.

What Difference does Ru-Max® make?

With greater digestibility, the amount of methane produced by 100 cows dropped by 1 kilogram per day.

Across a year, this means 365kg less methane is produced by a herd of 100 cows.

AKMC

AKMC is a gamechanger in mycotoxin management. It contains proprietary substances to help livestock with nutritionally challenging feeds.

Improving fertility and performance through toxin management and patented enzyme technology, it also contains antioxidants, vitamins and trace elements.

Better Production from Nutritionally Challenging Feeds

In a trial featuring over 10,000 milking cows from 31 different farms, increases in energy-corrected milk (ECM), liquid milk production and butterfat, plus a decrease in somatic cell count.

This is achieved by denaturing the toxins in nutritionally challenging feeds, and fortifying the total ration with required vitamins and trace minerals.

Individual farm snapshots show various positive results, and 75% experienced an increase in ECM, including 61% by 0.9 litres or more.

Trial farms saw an average increase of 0.85 litres in liquid milk production, 0.02% butterfat and average decrease in somatic cell count of 14,130 cells/ml.

VT-MAX®

VT-Max® is a precisely balanced vitamin and trace mineral supplement, formulated using the latest mineral technology to optimise all aspects of dairy production.

These ingredients have benefits ranging from enhanced milk production to improved hoof and hair condition, improved appetite and digestion to metabolism and reproduction.

Advanced Mineral Technology for Enhanced Animal Performance

Benefits of the mineral programme include:

  • Improved Digestion and Absorption
    The unique chemical structure of the trace minerals in VT-Max® lead to enhanced animal performance and reduced environmental impact.
  • Minimised Negative Interactions
    Trace minerals in VT-Max® are insoluble in rumen fluid, making them directly available to the animal through intestinal absorption.
  • Personalisation
    Because higher-producing dairy cows need more nutrients, the feeding rate of VT-Max® is based on production levels.
  • Better Value
    Precise balancing of vitamin and mineral supplements and optimisation of production at a cost-effective price.
  • Analytical Services
    All Agri-King clients receive complimentary feed samples and digestibility tests with our unique and proprietary artificial rumens.

SUPER MICRO

Super Micro® supplies additional trace minerals and vitamins during periods of stress, such as transition and peak milk production.

New technology for improved energy efficiency, high levels of fat soluble vitamins A, D and E, alongside antioxidants, selenium and other trace elements, reduce inflammation and promote immunity.

Benefits to Rumen Development and Efficiency in Dairy Cattle

Super Micro® benefits dairy cattle at different stages of the dairy production cycle:

  • Improved Feed Intake After Calving
    Assisting rumen microbes to transition from a dry cow to lactating cow diet.
  • Rumen Development
    Helps with young dairy calves transitioning from a liquid to dry diet.
  • Nitrogen Utilisation Efficiency
    Inefficient nitrogen utilisation in transition cows can contribute to ketosis in fresh cows.
  • Enhanced Immune Status
    Through bioavailability of trace minerals for stressed and transition dairy cows.
  • Digestion Efficiency
    Enhancing rumen efficiency to aid transition dairy cows.

DRY COW MICRO PAK

Dry Cow Micro Pak helps minimise future freshening problems with micronutrient fortification for dry and pre-fresh dairy cow rations.

Uniquely designed to supply industry-leading levels of the fat soluble vitamins and trace minerals these cows need, while also containing selenium yeast, selenium salts, and Agri-King’s yeast technology.

Minimise Freshening Problems

Feeding Dry Cow Micro Park along with a balanced dry cow ration helps to minimise freshening problems such as milk fever, retained cleansings, metritis, ketosis and displaced abomasums.

Key-Lyte Dry Cow

A transition feed designed specially for feeding in the final three weeks prior to calving, Key-Lyte Dry Cow contains anionic salts, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, trace elements, industry-leading vitamins, yeasts and enzymes.

These supplement the cow with nutrition during the key transition period to lactation, and helps reduce the stress and potential health problems associated with calving.

MICRO XX

A nutritional supplement designed to counteract the negative effects of nitrates, sulphates, ammonia and high pH water in cattle.

Micro XX® enhances ruminal digestion and nutrient availability when it may be affected by certain compounds potentially harmful to dairy cattle. It contains vitamins and extracts that detoxify and neutralise these compounds, as well as replenish oxidised molecules.

Avoid the Symptoms of High Nitrates in Feedstuffs and Water

Micro XX® helps to avoid the following symptoms which can be caused by potentially harmful elements:

  • Excessive grain in manure
  • Poor appetite and low production
  • Watery eyes, sore feet and rough coat
  • Breeding problems and lower infection resistance
  • Severe breathing issues, muscle tremors, abortion and/or death

HOOF KING

A feed supplement designed to support hoof health through biologically-available trace minerals and nutrients.

Ingredients include Biotin, which is needed to form keratin, and supporting hoof integrity. Organic trace minerals support development and strength of bone and cartilage and Vitamin E maintains cell integrity as an antioxidant.

Foot Rot Reduced in On-Farm Results

A trial on dairy heifers found supplementation with Hoof King® resulted in an 87% reduction in foot rot after 60 days, in addition to fewer incidents and lower severity of digital dermatitis.

TRI-LUTION®

Tri-Lution® supports a healthy digestive tract, stimulating water and feed consumption. This is achieved through a combination of lactic acid producing bacteria, prebiotic and probiotic nutrients and yeast.

These multiple key ingredients are synergistically formulated, and include a unique strain of E. faecium, prebiotic live yeast, yeast cell wall fractions and fructo-oligosaccharides.

Limit the Population Growth of Pathogens in the Digestive Tract

The ingredients in Tri-Lution® work together to help limit population growth of pathogens such as E. coli and Salmonella in the cow’s digestive tract.

In a trial, faeces in calves fed Tri-Lution® contained fewer than 1% viable strains of salmonella.
