Ecosyl silage additive can improve the performance from your winter forage by increasing milk yield by over 1 litre per cow per day. In a 100 cow herd housed for 180 days during winter, income can increase by around £40 per cow at a milk price of 18 pence per litre if fed Ecosyl treated forage. This equates to £4000 extra income for the herd.
We hope this has made you think about next years' silage crop and the benefits ECOSYL PRODUCTS could bring to you.

MINERALS / VITAMINS
A little quiz
- Do you include additional minerals in blends fed to dairy cows?
- Does your present diet supply adequate vitamins and minerals for the modern high yielding dairy cow?
- What are adequate vitamin and mineral levels?
- Does your present mineral meet the cow's requirements?
- Do you know the effects minerals and vitamins can have on fertility, mastitis and lameness?
- What are the levels of minerals in your forage?
Over the last few years it has become more important to feed adequate minerals and vitamins because:
- The increase in the use of blends means that the mineral and vitamins in concentrate cannot deliver the cows requirement.
- Higher milk yield mean higher mineral and vitamins are required.
- A wider range of home grown feeds being used could be short of minerals of have a detrimental effect (e.g. selenium and copper)
- A dramatic decline in cow fertility.
- Increasing evidence of the role or minerals and vitamins in animal health.
GP Feeds can help check your mineral requirement by forage testing and customising minerals for individual farm requirements
A typical mineral supplement will cost about 5p per cow per day so get it checked out. Get it right and your cows will live happily ever after.
