StayDry Pasture utilisation One of the biggest loss of productivity in the beef grazing industry is the inefficient conversion of the grass grown into saleable product. Pasture utilisation is the percentage of available pasture that is consumed by the animal. MLA estimates the average pasture utilisation is 30-40%. The recommended target is 50-60% with levels up to 70% being achieved in more advanced grazing systems. Utilisation of grass is mainly improved through grazing management practices; however, improved conversion efficiency of the consumed feed can be achieved with supplementation. The protein and energy in feed is not directly available for production in ruminants. Rumen microbial activity is required for conversion of feed into available forms of nutrients (volatile fatty acids for energy and microbial amino acids for protein). How does Hy-Mag Utilise work? StayDry Hy-Mag Utilise is a waterproof lick powder nutritional supplement for cattle and sheep. It contains a quality range and balance of minerals and trace elements for young growing cattle on improved pastures. Rapidly growing pastures and fodder crops often have nutritional deficiencies and mineral imbalances. Excessive non-protein nitrogen and potassium can cause imbalances in the rumen and impair microbial function. A lack of fibre in these pastures can also disrupt rumen function and health. Poor sunlight reduces Vitamin D synthesis in the animal as well as causing further imbalances of sugars and non-protein nitrogen in the plant. StayDry Hy-Mag Utilise aims to increase the conversion of feed into the nutrients required for production. This is done by complementing the diet with CRINA and carbohydrates to achieve optimum rumen microbial activity. Highly bioavailable magnesium and Hy-D are key components in the product required to address the mineral imbalances. Mineral balance Magnesium is required for nerve and muscle function, which explains why a deficiency is associated with grass tetany, poor rumen contraction and bloat. Magnesium deficiency can be the result of low pasture levels or, more commonly, an excess of other minerals, which can block the absorption of magnesium. Not all sources of magnesium are equally available in the rumen, which means that comparing magnesium content on supplement labels is misleading. StayDry Hy-Mag is formulated with highly bioavailable magnesium to supplement dietary requirements and promote optimal nerve and muscle function. Importance of CRINA StayDry Hy-Mag Utilise contains CRINA, which is a unique and precisely formulated blend of essential oil compounds proven to have a positive effect on the conditions in the rumen. By altering the rumen microflora, CRINA helps increase rumen synchrony between energy and protein degradation; CRINA has been shown to enhance milk production in dairy cows as well as live weight gain and feed efficiency in beef cattle. CRINA has several beneficial effects on the rumen fermentation: • Reduces protein degradability from a broad range of dietary sources • Inhibits rumen bacteria that degrade amino acids to ammonia • Synchronises protein and energy metabolism in the rumen Importance of Hy-D and magnesium Hy-D (25-hydroxycholecalciferol) is more bio available from the diet than Vitamin D3. As a result, animals are able to more efficiently absorb the Hy-D and can then produce more of the active Vitamin D in the body.

Pasture utilisationOne of the biggest loss of productivity in the beef grazing industry is the inefficient conversion of the grass grown into saleable product. Pasture utilisation is the percentage of available pasture that is consumed by the animal. MLA estimates the average pasture utilisation is 30-40%. The recommended target is 50-60% with levels up to 70% being achieved in more advanced grazing systems.

Utilisation of grass is mainly improved through grazing management practices; however, improved conversion efficiency of the consumed feed can be achieved with supplementation. The protein and energy in feed is not directly available for production in ruminants. Rumen microbial activity is required for conversion of feed into available forms of nutrients (volatile fatty acids for energy and microbial amino acids for protein).

How does Hy-Mag Utilise work? StayDry Hy-Mag Utilise is a waterproof lick powder nutritional supplement for cattle and sheep. It contains a quality range and balance of minerals and trace elements for young growing cattle on improved pastures.

Rapidly growing pastures and fodder crops often have nutritional deficiencies and mineral imbalances. Excessive non-protein nitrogen and potassium can cause imbalances in the rumen and impair microbial function. A lack of fibre in these pastures can also disrupt rumen function and health. Poor sunlight reduces Vitamin D synthesis in the animal as well as causing further imbalances of sugars and non-protein nitrogen in the plant.

StayDry Hy-Mag Utilise aims to increase the conversion of feed into the nutrients required for production. This is done by complementing the diet with CRINA and carbohydrates to achieve optimum rumen microbial activity. Highly bioavailable magnesium and Hy-D are key components in the product required to address the mineral imbalances.

Mineral balanceMagnesium is required for nerve and muscle function, which explains why a deficiency is associated with grass tetany, poor rumen contraction and bloat. Magnesium deficiency can be the result of low pasture levels or, more commonly, an excess of other minerals, which can block the absorption of magnesium.

Not all sources of magnesium are equally available in the rumen, which means that comparing magnesium content on supplement labels is misleading. StayDry Hy-Mag is formulated with highly bioavailable magnesium to supplement dietary requirements and promote optimal nerve and muscle function.

Importance of CRINAStayDry Hy-Mag Utilise contains CRINA, which is a unique and precisely formulated blend of essential oil compounds proven to have a positive effect on the conditions in the rumen. By altering the rumen microflora, CRINA helps increase rumen synchrony between energy and protein degradation; CRINA has been shown to enhance milk production in dairy cows as well as live weight gain and feed efficiency in beef cattle.

CRINA has several beneficial effects on the rumen fermentation:

• Reduces protein degradability from a broad range of dietary sources

• Inhibits rumen bacteria that degrade amino acids to ammonia

• Synchronises protein and energy metabolism in the rumen

Importance of Hy-D and magnesium Hy-D (25-hydroxycholecalciferol) is more bio available from the diet than Vitamin D3. As a result, animals are able to more efficiently absorb the Hy-D and can then produce more of the active Vitamin D in the body. Improved Vitamin D status means greater bioavailability of the critical minerals, calcium and phosphorus.

Hy-D

• Hy-D (25-OH-D3) is the circulating available form of Vitamin D3

• 25-OH-D3 is absorbed in a similar way to but more rapidly than Vitamin D3

• By passing the liver, Hy-D ensure optimal plasma levels of 25-OH-D3 and a more efficient production of 1, 25 (OH)2D3 active form of Vitamin D3

Magnesium is a key component for turning stored Vitamin D into active Vitamin D. When magnesium is deficient this process is impaired. StayDry Hy-Mag Utilise includes Hy-D and highly bioavailable magnesium to ensure optimum active Vitamin D levels, which then enables calcium and phosphorus mobilisation.

• Inhibits rumen bacteria that degrade amino acids to ammonia• Synchronises protein and energy metabolism in the rumen

Importance of Hy-D and magnesiumVitamin D plays a role in mineral absorption and mobilisation, immunity and energy production. It is well known that in winter there is an absence of Vitamin D. This is further exacerbated by pastures containing factors such as an excess of beta-Carotene and unbalanced mineral ratios.

Magnesium is a key component for turning stored Vitamin D into active Vitamin D. When magnesium is deficient this process is impaired. StayDry Hy-Mag Utilise includes Hy-D and highly bioavailable magnesium to ensure optimum active Vitamin D levels, which then enables calcium and phosphorus mobilisation.
