BICAR®Z in the feeding for Ruminants

To increase ruminants’ performance, to reduce the risks of acidosis or to insure an optimal ruminal mechanism, Bicar® Z is widely used in Europe.

Bicar® Z profitability, simplicity of use and quality guaranteed breeders full satisfaction.

 

 

RECOMMANDED DOSIS :

- Milk cows in lactation:
250 grams per day and per cow in continuous  (half bag of Bicar®  Z corresponds to a daily dosis for a herd of 50 milk cows in lactation) )


up to 400 grams per day and per cow while risky period (transitions)


- Feed lots:

150 grams per day and per cow in continuous (a quarter of a Bicar® Z bag) corresponds  to a daily dosis for a herd of 40  fattening young bovines)


- Goats and milk ewes:

*20 grams per day in continuous 

- Fattening lamb:

1% of the feed
