“Complete” Liquid Supplements

Reisdorf Bros. Also carries a complete liquid Designed for free-choice lick Tanks, top-dress, and TMR’S

"Complete" liquid feed supplements are packed with protein, energy, vitamins, and minerals to meet your dairy animals’ supplemental nutritional requirements. Fed in lick tanks, "Dairy" –35% can supplement a pasture feeding program, supply all of your cows trace mineral and vitamin requirements in a TMR, and improve the palatability of poor forages and hay as a top-dress. It is very flexible and cost effective in most dairy programs and is targeted for medium sized beef and dairy operations.

"Heifer" - 24% w/ Bovatec is our liquid heifer supplement to be used free choice to supplement grazing or dry-lot heifers on several types of feeding programs. Supplementing dairy replacement heifers with Bovatec increases weight gain enabling earlier maturity and breeding. Heifers will enter the milk string at a younger age paying you dividends sooner.

BOVATEC is a registered trademark of Alpharma (animal health division)

“20% Reisdorf Dry Cow Supplement” is designed for providing the proper amounts of vitamins and minerals to maintain health and condition of dairy cows through calving and freshening. Because liquid feed contains no fiber, it is easier for dry cows to consume our “20% Reisdorf Dry Cow Supplement” inTMR’S or in lick tanks at a time when the cows Dry Matter Intakes are at its lowest point. Thus, liquid feed can help reduce a costly metabolic problem at freshening which can ruin that cows profitability to your herd.

"Complete" liquid supplements are fed in a range of 2-4 lbs. Per head per day. Significant cost savings can be realized, plus healthier animals, ease of feeding and more profit for your farming operation.

“Feeding Tips From Reisdorf Bros.”

LIQUID SUPPLEMENT FEEDING STRATEGY
By Joseph M. Skawienski – Liquid Feed Manager, Reisdorf Bros.Inc.

I. Determine your standards and goals for liquids in your feeding program.
Example: COST vs. BENEFITS
Cost control can be used to place value added products in liquids such as, mold inhibitors, yeast, customized vitamin and trace mineral pacs, amino-acids, phosphoric acid, urea, and liquid methionine analog products just to name a few. These products can be blended in liquids at a reduced cost and are handled as a bulk ingredient in liquids.
Benefits of liquids can be labor savings because of the automation in the delivery equipment for liquids or as simple as a free-choice lick tank. Increasing Dry Matter Intakes, more milk production, and better herd health are more examples of benefits of liquids.

II. Use Balanced Rations with the latest research on the proper use of liquid forms of SUGAR in TMR’S to get their full benefit, or add our "Complete" liquid supplements on top of existing well-balanced programs to improve consistency and performance of the dairy herd. Reisdorf Bros.has access to the research and experience to unlock liquids full potential along with a trained nutritional staff to implement liquids successfully.

III. Finally, look at the bottom line. In most cases, liquids don’t cost, THEY PAY! Usually, they result in more cost effective rations or promote healthier more productive cattle.
