🐮 Two critical stages. One simple mineral programme!

A suckler cow’s nutritional needs change throughout the production cycle - from winter housing and late pregnancy through to calving, early lactation and bulling.

That’s why our two stage suckler cow mineral programme is designed to provide targeted support when it matters most.

1️⃣ Working Suckler: Feed from housing to six weeks pre-calving to support rumen function and help balance forage based winter diets.

2️⃣ Super Suckler: Feed from six weeks pre-calving through to bulling to support cow health, calving, calf vigour, colostrum quality and bulling activity.

The goal is simple: a healthy cow producing a healthy calf every year.

Meet the winter feeding Dream Team: Alkacid + RumiTech 🐄

When cattle move onto higher energy finishing diets, keeping the rumen stable and working efficiently is key to maintaining performance.

Alkacid helps protect and stabilise the rumen by buffering excess acid, while RumiTech*helps improve feed utilisation by encouraging the rumen microbes that are most effective at digesting fibre.

Together, they help support:

✅ A healthier, more stable rumen
✅ Better feed utilisation
✅ Improved feed efficiency
✅ Daily liveweight gain
✅ Lower cost per kilo produced

Alkacid protects, RumiTech performs. Together, they make a pretty powerful team💪🐮

Are your youngstock getting the right mineral supply? 🐄

We’ve made great progress in reviewing responsible mineral supply for milking and dry cows, but youngstock can sometimes be overlooked.

The minerals calves and heifers receive can have a major influence on their future performance in the dairy herd. Getting this right early helps ensure they enter their first lactation as healthy, productive cows.

Many traditional youngstock minerals can oversupply minerals, which can not only impact health and performance but also add unnecessary cost.

🐑 Finishing lambs efficiently isn’t just about feed cost, it’s about what that feed delivers.

Our Lamb Feeder pellets are designed to support fast, efficient growth and help lambs reach finishing targets sooner.

✅ Up to 4:1 feed conversion in young lambs
✅ Improved kill-out compared with grass alone
✅ RumiTech helps support feed efficiency and reduce cost/kg gain
✅ Alkacid and Yea-Sacc support rumen health
✅ 5mm pellet helps prevent sorting and supports consistent intake

And with Lamb Feeder potentially requiring 1–2kg less feed per kg of liveweight gain than some alternatives, cost per kilo gained can be a much more useful measure than cost per tonne alone.

🐑 Dry summer? Don’t switch off when it comes to worms and fluke.

After a hot, dry season, parasite risk can be easy to underestimate - but timing is everything.

Worm eggs can remain dormant on pasture during dry weather, then hatch in large numbers after rain, creating a sudden challenge for lambs a few weeks later. At the same time, liver fluke risk can build on a very different timescale and may arrive later in the season.

That’s why knowing what to treat, when to treat and which product to use is so important.

Read our latest article on worms and liver fluke to understand what to watch for this autumn: https://www.harbro.co.uk/where-and-when-will-worms-and-liver-fluke-hit/

And remember, our Harbro SQPs are here to help you choose the right approach for your flock.
