The first 100-days post calving is the most critical time to set your herd up for a for a successful 305 day lactation.

The majority of disease and metabolic disorders occur in early lactation, so correct nutrition and management around this time is crucial to reduce issues and save farms labour and costs.

Getting the Nutrition, Immunity and Rumen Health right during the first 100 days will determine Milk yield, fertility, health and BCS throughout the lactation.

Intouch and Alltech work with farmers on areas around body condition score, nutrition, minerals and cow management to set herds up for a more productive lactation. With more than 40 years experience in the field using products and services backed by scientific research, we have solutions to any issues farmers are facing.
