Promotes greater efficiency and absorption of nutrients
Contributes to healthy rumen development and supports papillae formation
Compatible with cereal-based concentrate calf feeds
Replaces lower-quality forages such as hay, straw, chaff and silage/baleage
Typical analysis on a dry matter basis: Crude protein 20%, crude fat 2.9%, crude fibre 27%, calcium 16.7 g/kg, sodium 0.2 g/kg, selenium 0.06 mg/kg, nutritional juices (as fed) 55.0% and metabolisable energy 11.5 MJ/kg
