When to Use Weanermaster:

Weaners slip in condition after weaning. Stunting of adult frame can occur when early weaning is associated with poor feeding.

Having spoken to graziers, property managers and DPI personnel, it is clear that getting weaners to develop an appetite and efficiently digest available pastures is recognized as a problem. Weaners have high requirements for nutrients.

Supplementation to balance deficient nutrients increases the availability of feeds and allows the rumen to work more efficiently. While there is forage available, it is usually more cost-effective to utilize this than to bring in feed substitutes. However, to utilize the forage for weight gain in young animals, supplementation of deficient nutrients is necessary. Then the forage is digested more fully and more is extracted from what is eaten. It is digested more rapidly, the rumen empties, and the weaner has the appetite to eat more.

Weaners put on weight because they get more out of what they eat, and they eat more of it. Weanermaster is the supplement block for weaners.
