Product Description

BoviPro-FlyBye delivers a direct and effective source of protein, minerals, vitamins and essential trace elements to the rumen and is ideal to assist in providing maintenance for cattle on dry feed.

  • Garlic has shown to reduce fly cover on cattle under differing levels of fly pressure.1
  • 35% crude protein, consisting of both rumen degradable protein, including urea (8.0%), and true protein.
  • Effective starch to stimulate greater rumen microbial activity, increase nitrogen utilisation and improves fibre digestion.
  • Balanced levels of available calcium (11%), phosphorus (2%), magnesium (1%) and salt (15%) for optimum performance on dry feed and stubbles.
  • Essential trace elements (I, SE, Cu, Mo, Zn & Co) and vitamins A, D & E to help promote optimum health, wellbeing and support fertility.
  • Sulphur at levels to further stimulate rumen function and boost feed conversion efficiency.2
  • Flavoured, oiled and granular to increase palatability, control dust, reduce product losses and limit segregation in mixed feeds.
  • Weatherproof to reduce water damage and leaching.

Product Appearance

BoviPro-FlyBye is a partially weatherproof, granular, dry supplement. It is light brown in colour and has a slight garlic aroma.

Feeding Instruction

Free Access Feeding: Offer BoviPro-FlyBye free access in tubs limiting intake to 250 to 300g/head/day. Use one tub (e.g. 1,000L shuttle with the middle cut out of it = 2 tubs*) for 40 to 50 cattle.

Product contains urea: Introduce to cattle slowly by mixing 50:50 with lime for 3 to 5 days.

*Make slits down the sides of the tubs so water can escape. The product should not sit in standing water.

Cattle may require enticing to achieve initial recommended consumption levels. If, after the first 3 days, consumption is below expected, add 1kg of grain or sugar per bag of supplement, increasing by 1kg each day until the recommended level of consumption is achieved. After a few days the grain can be reduced.

If consumption is still low contact ANP.

  • DO NOT FEED TO HUNGRY OR THIRSTY LIVESTOCK
  • ONLY FEED TO INTENDED LIVESTOCK
  • DO NOT ALLOW ACCESS TO SHEEP OR HORSES
