LAND O LAKES® Pasteurized Milk Balancer®

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document discusses the benefits and specifications of using LAND O LAKES® Pasteurized Milk Balancer® to optimize nutrition when feeding pasteurized waste milk to calves. It highlights the product's role in providing balanced nutrition, supporting calf growth, and addressing milk supply challenges.
Specifications: Pasteurized waste milk typically contains 25% protein and 30% fat but lacks essential vitamins and minerals. The Pasteurized Milk Balancer® helps achieve an optimal protein-to-fat ratio and supplements necessary nutrients.
Calf Growth Optimization: Studies indicate that calves fed with the balancer gain more weight and show improved physical development compared to those fed without it. The product supports better hip height, body length, and heart girth.
Cost Efficiency: Using the balancer is an economical solution to milk supply fluctuations, reducing the need to use salable milk.
Gut Health: The inclusion of probiotics and prebiotics in the balancer supports a healthy gut microbiome, aiding nutrient breakdown and addressing health challenges.
Feeding Recommendations: It is advised to feed 4 quarts twice daily or 3 quarts 2-3 times daily, starting after colostrum feeding. Fresh water should be provided from day 2, and Purina® AMPLI-CALF® Starter Feed from day 3.
Consistency and Variability: The balancer helps reduce the variability in pasteurized waste milk quality, providing a more consistent diet for calves. Research shows significant variation in nutrient content and bacteria count in pasteurized waste milk across farms.
Conclusion: The LAND O LAKES® Pasteurized Milk Balancer® is a strategic addition to calf feeding programs, enhancing nutrition, growth, and cost-effectiveness while addressing variability in milk quality.

Lower potential investment cost without sacrificing calf performance Balances nutrition Pasteurized waste milk consists of approximately 25% protein and 30% fat. Research has shown that pre-weaned calves grow more efficiently when their liquid diet contains a higher percentage of protein than fat.1 Pasteurized waste milk often lacks vitamins D3 and E, all seven essential trace minerals and five of eight essential B vitamins.2 Feeding LAND O LAKES® Pasteurized Milk Balancer ® helps balance nutrition by delivering the optimal protein-to-fat ratio and providing the necessary vitamins and minerals. Optimizes calf growth Studies have shown that calves fed pasteurized waste milk supplemented with Pasteurized Milk Balancer ® gained more weight from birth to weaning compared to calves fed pasteurized waste milk without a balancer. Calves also showed better hip height, body length and heart girth.3 Addresses milk supply challenges The amount of waste milk available can fluctuate. Adding Pasteurized Milk Balancer ® is an economical way to address supply challenges rather than using salable milk to reach the volume needed. 1 2 Ferguson, J. 2014. Calves and Heifers VCSN642.
