Dry Fat Supplement for High Performance Dairy Cows is a rumen-inert fat supplement containing 99% total fatty acids (TFAs). Manufactured in Paris, Illinois, it’s a small particle prill that’s highly palatable and digestible, and it can be top-dressed or blended in a ration. IDEAL FOR DAIRY CUSTOMERS WHO: Just over 50% of the TFAs are Palmitic (C16:0), helping achieve higher butterfat yield, by taking advantage of cow’s natural tendency to divert more of the TFAs toward milk fat. • Recognize fatty acid balance drives performance and have these goals: - Higher Butterfat - Maximum Energy-Corrected Milk - Maintain cow condition Stearic (C18:0) and Oleic (C18:1) are included to provide the 18 carbon TFAs early-lactation high-milk cows needed to maximize energy corrected milk and maintain body condition. Including C18:1 Oleic at 10% helps ensure good digestibility. TYPICAL ANALYSIS • Want one fat that fits the needs of all their cows (early, mid and late lactation). • Avoid products that: - Reduce DMI of early-lactation, high-milk and heat-stressed cows. - Cause excessive loss of body condition if fed to early-lactation cows. FEEDING DIRECTIONS Feed to the whole herd or specific groups when additional energy is required, and shifting of energy toward milk fat yield and energy-corrected milk (while maintaining cow condition) is a priority. Typical feeding rate is 0.5 lb. to 0.75 lb. per cow, per day, depending on specific situations and goals. As always, use caution when feeding distillers, grains and/or oil seeds which are high in rumen-available unsaturated fatty acid load (RUFAL) and can lead to milk fat depression (MFD). Hydrolyzed Animal and Vegetable Fat (Preserved with BHT) • Restrict the use of free fats (tallow & grease) to 1.0% or less of DMI. • Restrict the amount of fat from cottonseed, soybeans and corn (DDG) to less than 1.0% of DMI. • Feed EB MERGE up to 1.5% of DMI. • Keep total fat concentration in the diet below 7.0% DM, or below 4.5 lb. per cow, per day.
