Altosid IGR & Avila 4: Comprehensive Support for Cattle Health and Performance
Altosid IGR targets horn fly populations by breaking their life cycle in fresh manure, helping to reduce fly numbers and support the health and performance of your cattle. Horn fly-related weight loss can reach up to 50 pounds per animal, leading to losses of up to $45 per head each season. Altosid IGR is a crucial tool in minimizing economic impact.
Avila 4 provides a powerful blend of organic zinc, manganese, copper, and cobalt to support overall cattle health. This combination aids in immunity, reproduction, skin and hoof health, and muscle development. Additionally, it enhances milk production, promotes fiber digestion, and supports energy metabolism, making it essential for stress management and optimal performance.
* Avila 4 requires VFD
Both additives can be added to High Magnesium and All Season 7.5 mineral in 50 lb bags.

FAQs
-
Fly control minerals typically contain ingredients like Altosid IGR (Insect Growth Regulator) that help reduce fly populations by affecting the larvae before they hatch. For effective fly control, you should begin feeding fly control mineral in 30 days before the last frost and feed till 30 days after the first killing frost to break the fly lifecycle

Mineral Tubs: These provide a self-serve option for cattle, which is great for grazing herds. They're designed to encourage continuous, moderate intake and can be placed in areas that cattle naturally frequent.
Bagged Minerals: Typically mixed into feed or provided in specific feeding stations, bagged minerals allow more precise control over the amount consumed. They're often a good option for smaller herds or more targeted feeding programs.
-
Yes, over-supplementing cattle can lead to mineral imbalances, which can cause health issues. Always follow the recommended feeding guidelines, and consult with a nutritionist or veterinarian to tailor the mineral program to your herd’s specific needs
-
To determine if your cattle mineral program is effective, consider the following:
Mineral Consumption: On average, cattle should consume about four ounces of mineral per head per day. The mineral mix should contain all 14 essential macro and micro minerals to address forage deficiencies and meet nutritional needs year-round.
Feeding Year-Round: For optimal breeding results, feed cattle mineral year-round. Access to minerals ensures nutritional balance despite seasonal changes in forage quality. You can adjust formulas seasonally to address specific needs, like fly control or grass tetany prevention.
Signs of Deficiency: Look for signs of mineral deficiency, such as dull hair, cloudy eyes, lethargy, or physical variation between cows. These could indicate inadequate mineral intake or poor palatability.
Breeding Results: Evaluate breeding success. Ask if cows are breeding back efficiently, if the breeding season is too long, or if conception rates are below 90%. Mineral deficiencies can affect reproduction, leading to a longer calving season and less uniform calf crops.
For optimal results, consider proven mineral formulas like Purina® Wind and Rain® Mineral.
