AGRIMIN 24/7 Calcium Dairy Cows Bolus After administering the coating on the bolus dissolves in the rumen and the bolus disintegrates completely within 50 minutes. The calcium chloride is rapidly absorbed, and the calcium sulphate is absorbed over a longer period, giving a sustained supply of calcium.
AGRIMIN 24/7 CALCIUM is intended for: High yielding dairy cows, dairy cows with a previous history of calcium problems, older cows into
their 3rd or more lactation, Jersey and Guernsey cattle and as a supplement to calcium injections after treatment for milk fever.
