Dairygold Prime Milk Replacer Range

The key ingredient in Dairygold’s Prime Elite calf milk replacer range is Imunopro®, a concentrated Whey Protein, is carefully balanced to ensure the optimum level of amino acids, fatty acids and milk sugars for growth, health and development of the calf.

Imunopro® contains:

• Over 4.5% IgG which is responsible for calf health and found in colostrum .
• High levels of key amino acids for growth and development.
• High levels of bovine milk oligosaccharides which help develop a healthy gut bacteria population.
• High levels of lactoferrin, which is important for gut health and has been shown to reduce scour.

High quality vegetable fats (coconut & sustainable palm oil) are used to mimic milk fat and provide the energy which normally comes from milk fat.

Sugar levels are adjusted to ensure that the right amount of energy is present for the calf to reach its growth potential.

Imunopro® is carefully blended at low temperatures to insure all the ingredients are evenly combined and that none of the proteins are denatured. The blend is balanced with the correct levels of proteins, fats and sugars for maximum growth and development of the calf. Once blended in the liquid phase, it is then spray dried to ensure great mixability, palatability and consistency.

Dairygold’s Prime Elite range contain added technologies:

Acidification: helps to maintain optimum gut conditions encouraging beneficial gut bacteria and discouraging the pathogens that cause scours and limit performance.

Gardion: A garlic extract (Allin) helps to reduce the colonisation of pathogenic bacteria in the gut. Pathogenic bacteria cause scours and limit performance. It has the ability to enhance the immune system as garlic is linked to having antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal properties. This all helps to improve gut health in the calf which is important to maintain good growth and thrive

Prime 25 has the added benefit of:

Digestarom: a blend of plant based essential oils (cinnamon, liquorice, vanilla). Unique to Dairygold in Ireland. Digestarom is antioxidant, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory. Proven benefits include:

• Less scour
• Less days to recover from a scour event.
• Increase CMR + starter calf intakes.
• Increase pre-weaning calf LWG and weight at weaning.
