How To Get More Milk From A Transition Cow
What is a transition cow?
A transition cow is that cow that just calved down. She moves from the incalf state to being milked. There are many changes that are associated with the transition. Among the changes being how they utilise mineral for example during the incalf period/dry period she did not require a lot of calcium but she now needs more.The cow also develops low appetite. She will be unwilling to consume more feeds. This is normal or physiological but it doesn’t auger well will milk production because milk production is an energy intensive process. You there need to support her so that they can eat more feeds and maintain high yields.
She should be provided with Tranzpro 18 days before calving and 36 days after calving. This provides her with the most needed protein, energy and elements that facilitate utilisation of the energy (metabolism) during this critical phase.Her ration should be well balanced. This helps her increase milk yield and attain peak production faster.You shouldn’t lose track of her heat cycles and she should come on heat 45 to 90 days after calving.
This will guarantee you of a calf every year. Use of Tranzpro will help sustain a high production contributing to profitability of your dairy investments. Read a story of Githunguri who increased her yields from 2 litres to a peak of 38 litres following a successful Restore program.
