20kg
Feeding Instructions:
Remove outer
carton and plastic cover and place near water troughs, dams and
stock camps. Place out sufficient blocks to avoid overcrowding of
stock. Initially, the consumption rate will be higher than average,
but higher rates of consumption will drop after an initial "gorging"
period. Replace immediately when consumed.
Consumption
Guide:
The following
rates will increase or decrease according to varying pasture conditions.
Cattle 30g/head/day
Sheep 10g/head/day

When to
use Trace Element + Copper & Cobalt:
1. When there
is evidence of a copper & cobalt deficiency.
The bacteria
in the rumen require an array of minerals and trace elements to
process feed. The minerals and trace elements in an animal's diet
can be compared to the staves of a barrel: if any one of those staves
is broken or missing, the level of nutritional health is decreased
to the level of its greatest deficiency.
The seven trace
elements required for effective rumen function are: copper, cobalt,
iron, zinc, manganese, iodine and selenium. There is a concentration
of these elements at which rumen microbes function optimally, so
each of these elements must be correctly balanced.
The effect of
balancing these essential elements is the efficient breakdown of
feed consumed by the animal.
Olsson's Trace
Element blocks alone or in combination with other supplements give
the animal the best chance to correct minor deficiencies.
