Target Animals

Cattle

Product Description

StockMins – BoviBloat contains a combination of two effective bloat reducing active ingredients, surfactant Teric PE62 and Bovatec. In combination these two powerful actives are designed to assist in the control and onset of pasture bloat caused by direct feeding at pasture.

Key Features:

  • Teric PE62 has strong anti-foaming properties even at small levels of intake.
  • Bovatec has a registered bloat claim: Aid in the reduction of bloat in cattle on pasture.
  • Contains minerals and trace elements that are considered to be of benefit under bloat-predisposing conditions.
  • Fortified with calcium, salt, magnesium and trace elements to assist in correcting common deficiencies associated with growing livestock grazing lush green pasture.
  • Bovatec has been shown to boost liveweight gain in livestock grazing green feed by up to 14% (Zoetis data on file).

What is the value of it being dual-active and multi-action?

With one active ingredient, Bovatec® (ionophore) acting to elevate rumen function and in doing so reduce bloat development, and the other active, Teric, controlling symptoms by rapidly dissolving bubbles, dual-active, multi-action bloat control products like StockMins-BoviBloat Plus have proven to be very effective in aiding in the control of bloat under various predisposing conditions.

What is the benefit of a loose-lick formulation?

The trick with bloat control products is to ensure that livestock are going to consume effective amounts of active ingredients at the right time to reduce bloat when challenges occur. StockMins-BoviBloat Plus’ palatable loose-lick formulation enables cattle to easily access the product at levels that provide an effective dose.

For best results, we recommend using StockMins-BoviBloat Plus as a part of an integrated bloat management program.
