JANUARY 2014
NEW TO THE FARM STORE:
Intrcare treatment for digital dermatitis ( mortelaro) is the only licensed non antibiotic cure on
the market.
We now stock a range of products from
maintenance to extreme cases.
We have trialled it on a number of extreme cases
on cork farms and found it an excellent
cost effective treatment.
The gel was applied by brush to the area
and wrapped for four days.
We then removed the bandage and applied more gel
which led to a cure after another subsequent 3 days.
Dosing cows
Endospec is excellent for the control of fluke and worms
with only a 72 hour milk withdrawal allowing
flexibility before calving.
Cows need to be housed for five weeks plus to ensure
all fluke are at adult stage .
Ectospec for lice offers more flexibility as it has a
zero milk withdrawal.
New teat dip from Westfalia/GEA:
Salva Hex
Pre and post containing the highest levels of lactic acid and chlorohexidine on the market
with excellent emollients .
Excellent product giving farmers additional options for quality milk exclusive to
The Farm Store.
We also have a full range of detergents and disinfectants.
AlkabupHa
The alkaline solution for all diets
At 96% protein alkabupha substitutes expensive protein from the diet while neutralising
excess acid. Rumen function is optimised at 6-7% ph, this is achieved naturally by an animal
chewing the cud. With high starch diets an animal can struggle to reach an optimal PH and
therefore leads to acidosis. With alkabupha the total diet is neutralised prior to entering the
animal and therefore enabling more cereal to be added to the diet increasing production.
