Betavit

Supplementary feed for breeding animals to compensate the ß-carotene-deficiency

Improved fertility
Robust animals
Reduced calf losses

Product description

JOSERA Betavit is a vitamin concentrate that helps you and your animals to achieve better fertility. It acts to compensate beta-carotene deficiency and supports the metabolism in the calf-reproduction phase with all-year silage and corn-heavy rations.

Maize silage, fodder beets, hay, soiled beet leaf silage, straw, grain, soya, canola meal and concentrated feed are low in beta-carotene. The beta-carotene content of grass silage is uncertain. A lack of beta-carotene is expressed by:

Afterbirth retention
Slow retraction of the uterus
Silent heat
Delayed ovulation
Cysts
Intrauterine death and abortion
Calf mortality and diarrhoea
Low milk fat content
Low milk production
Increased susceptibility to infections

Improved fertility with:
- A clear heat
- Extended fertilisation ability
- A high fertilisation rate
High-performance and robust animals
Reduced young animal losses and diarrhoea due to better colostrum quality

Dairy cows: 50 – 100 g daily
14 days before calving till 8 weeks after succesfull insemination
Horses: 100 – 200 g daily
From january to may respectively 4 weeks before birth till 10 weeks after birth (100 days)
Breeding sows: 60 – 80 g daily from weaning till insemination

Notes:
Corn silage, fodder beets, hay, contaminated beet leaf silage, straw, grains, soybean and rapeseed meal, and concentrate feeds have low ß-carotene levels.

With grass silage, ß-carotene supply is uncertain. It depends on feed quantity and quality, as well as storage and preservation losses.

ß-carotene deficiency can manifest in the following symptoms:
