Recommended daily feed rates (per head basis)

Butterfat Extra can be fed as part of a TMR, top dressed or as part of a blend.

• Milking and Dry Cows 0.25 – 0.75 kg (depending on performance, cow condition and stage of
lactation)

• Ewes and goats Up to 0.1 kg (for multiple bearing and lactating ewes and goats)

Experience has shown improved returns when used in the first 150 days of lactation for high yielding cows or
in the diets of prolific milking and breeding ewes and goats. For best results consider feeding in conjunction
with a rumen-protected protein source, such as SoyPass or NovaPro.

Up to 5% Butterfat Extra is recommended in manufactured complementary feeds. It is best to slowly
introduce Butterfat Extra to the ration over a period of 3-4 days and it should be mixed with other feed
materials before feeding.

• Butterfat Extra is available all year round and can be delivered direct to farm in 25kg or 600kg bags or in
pallet multiples of 1.2 tonnes. The minimum order quantity is one pallet delivered (1.2 tonnes).

• In order to keep Butterfat Extra in the best possible condition, it should be stored in dry, well-ventilated buildings. Whilst
the product will not heat of its own accord, care should be taken to keep it out of direct sunlight and at a
maximum warehouse temperature of 35oC.

• Pallets should not be stacked more than two high and there should be a gap between the pallets to allow for air circulation. If very hot conditions (over 35oC) should
persist, it is advisable to remove the shrink-wrapping and the pallets should be broken down.

• Butterfat Extra should be used within 15 months of the product manufacture date, which is declared on each bag.
