Product Description
A sustained release bolus containing copper, iodine, selenium and cobalt. Intended to provide optimum trace element support for breeding cows on grass or forage based diets. Agrimin 24:7 Smartrace Plus is designed for situations where iodine, selenium and cobalt supplementation is essential in the run up to calving and service and where additional copper is also required.
Agrimin 24:7 Smartrace Plus supplies the animal’s full daily requirement of each essential trace element for 180 days.
Technology
Agrimin 24:7 Smartrace Plus boluses are for use in breeding cattle over 400kg body weight and are designed to lie in the reticulum. The wrapper on the bolus dissolves and the bolus breaks into three parts. These erode and dissolve thus providing a continuous and regular supply of nutrients to the animal.
