"We began using SN Triple Booster Pack in August 2020 as part of a trial with Specialist Nutrition."
Specialist Nutrition believed that this combination pack providing energy and improving rumen function would increase overall animal performance.
"In particular, we were looking for a boost in milk composition and yield in an already high yielding herd and an improvement in overall herd fertility.
We conducted a trail on a group of 30 cows, randomly selecting 15 to feed SN Triple Booster against 15 on their normal ration. All the cows had a similar ability and age. The animals were fed using a hopper specially developed for use with the Lely Astronaut.
Initially, we didn't see huge increases as my herd were already on one of the ingredients, and I had seen the first lift in yield from using this already. However, by October a significant difference was clear.
The group getting the SN Triple Booster Pack were on average producing over 5 litres more than their counterparts.
When I analysed the overall herd performance, 9 of the top 10 are on the trial, and all milking over 42ltrs while holding body condition.
I have seen fertility improve with an increase in conception on first service.
Specialist Nutrition provides all the nutritional advice I need and supply a tailored nutritional plan for the herd. Cows are happy, in great condition, going in calf and filling the tank. "
