Direct Energy Bolus is a complementary feed (dietetic mineral feed) for dairy cows designed to tackle the negative energy balance at its source and therefore achieve fast results. The bolus has been specially developed to reduce the risk of ketosis, which results from an energy deficit. The bolus contains energy, vitamins and minerals that work together to improve the animal's overall nutritional status. It also contains a Rumen Stimulant (PS) that helps stimulate the animal's rumination activity and improve rumen function. This results in better digestion of the feed, allowing the animal to extract more energy from it. Another advantage of the Direct Energy Bolus is its better acceptance compared to other energy sources. This makes it easier to give the bolus to the animal and reduces the risk of refusal. The bolus is also safe to administer and increases the animal's energy metabolism. The feeding advice for the Direct Energy Bolus is to give 1 bolus twice a day for 2 days using a suitable bolus applicator. This allows the animal to recover quickly and restores the energy balance.Direct Energy Bolus is the fastest route to results!Complementary feed (dietetic mineral feed).Benefits of Direct Energy Bolus• Rapid restoration of the energy balance.• Optimisation of the rumen flora.• In addition to energy, also contains vitamins and minerals to improve overall nutritional status.• Contains PS (Rumen Stimulant) => stimulates rumination activity and ensures better rumen function. • Better acceptance than other energy sources.• Safe to administer.• Increases energy metabolism.Feeding advice1 bolus 2 x a day for 2 days.The bolus can be administered using the white rings in the bolus applicator (36 mm). bolus promotion

The Direct Udder Support Bolus is a complementary feed for dairy cattle that has been specially developed to keep the herd healthy and resilient. The Direct Udder Support promotes the natural immune defences of the animals and helps maintain good udder health by making use of the special properties of specific plants and herbs. The bolus contains black garlic, ginseng and chicory, all of which have unique properties that boost the animals' immune system and udder health. Black garlic is created when ordinary white garlic undergoes a ripening process during which a number of important conversions take place in the garlic. As a result, black garlic contains more than 2x as many antioxidants as white garlic and is more easily absorbed. In addition, it does not have the unpleasant garlic smell, so it has no effect on the smell of the milk. Ginseng is a unique herb that has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for more than 3,000 years. Ginseng boosts the immune system and has an antioxidant effect. It also has a natural calming effect that can support the animal in stressful situations. Chicory is an important source of inulin, a group of dietary fibres that have been shown to have a prebiotic effect. This means that it promotes intestinal function and a healthy gut flora. In addition, inulin strengthens the immune system and calms the gastrointestinal tract, helping cattle feel better more quickly. Feeding advice:It is recommended to give 2 boluses per animal, with the option of repeating this after 5 days in periods of increased requirements, such as at drying off or calving. The boluses are administered orally using a suitable applicator. DIRE010: The pack contains 4 boluses of 60 g each.DIRE011: The pack contains 12 boluses of 60 g each. Good to know: This Direct Udder Support is the successor to the Excellent Black Garlic Bolus (KNOF707). 5+1 Bolus September bolus

Direct Bicarbonate Bolus reduces the risk of acidosis (rumen acidosis).Contains high-quality bicarbonate for a rapid increase in rumen pH. Can be used both curatively and preventively. Especially for high-yielding dairy cows. Ideal in case of low rumination activity, heat, transport.Direct Bicarbonate Bolus for dairy cows.Complementary feed (dietetic feed) for dairy cattle.For a rapid increase in rumen pH. How effective is the Bi Bolus?Scientific trials have shown that an amount of sodium bicarbonate raises the pH in the rumen. A German study shows that 20 percent of dairy farms have problems with rumen acidosis. The cost of a clinical case is estimated at 400 to 600 euros per cow. Rumen acidosis can lead to laminitis and lameness. Which cows is it suitable for?In case of acidification (acidosis) of the rumen contents.Ideal in case of low rumination activity, heat, transport. How is rumen acidosis recognised?By a low milk fat content (< 3%), or a milk fat content lower than the milk protein content. Rumen acidosis occurs on every dairy farm. The extent varies from farm to farm. High-yielding cows after calving are particularly susceptible to this condition. Packaging4 x 116 g StorageIn a cool, dry place.Away from direct sunlight.The bolus can be administered using the white rings in the bolus applicator (36 mm).

Direct Calcium BolusDietetic feed for dairy cows in bolus form to supplement calcium in the period around calving, to reduce the risk of milk fever and subclinical hypocalcaemia.Contains a combination of 2 readily available forms of calcium, calcium formate and calcium acetate, and provides 25 grams of available calcium per bolus.Why a calcium bolusShortly before or after calving, a dairy cow can develop a shortage of calcium reserves in the blood, because the calcium requirement rises sharply around calving. If the cow cannot replenish these reserves quickly enough, the blood calcium level can drop too low, resulting in visible milk fever symptoms such as reduced appetite and activity, cold ears and poorly functioning skeletal and organ muscles. In a larger group (40-50%), however, no symptoms are immediately visible, but the low calcium level can still have consequences later in lactation.The Direct Calcium Bolus is an easy-to-administer gelatine capsule that dissolves quickly in the rumen, so that its contents of calcium formate and calcium acetate are also released quickly. Thanks to the good availability of both forms of calcium, the calcium quickly becomes available to the cow. This ensures a gradual rise in the calcium level, which is maintained over a longer period.The perfect choice for every dairy farmer to supplement calcium in dairy cows, for an optimal start to lactation!Feeding advice1 bolus 12-24 hours before calving.1 bolus immediately after calving.1 bolus 10-12 hours after calving.1 bolus 24 hours after calving.Supportive after milk fever therapy1 bolus 2 hours after an intravenous calcium treatment.1 bolus 12 hours after an intravenous calcium treatment.Administer orally using a suitable applicator.The bolus can be administered using the white rings in the bolus applicator (36 mm). Good to know: This Direct Calcium Bolus is the successor to the Excellent Calcium Bolus Gold (CALC05018 and CALC05019).
