Dairy cattle

More milk per cow. Healthier herds, year after year.

Targeted minerals, vitamins and rumen support for the realities of Rwandan dairy — from smallholder zero-grazing units to commercial herds.

Feeding challenges

What makes nutrition hard here

  • ⚠ Forage variability across wet and dry seasons
  • ⚠ Sub-clinical mineral deficiencies hitting fertility and milk persistency
  • ⚠ Transition-cow problems: milk fever, ketosis, retained placenta
  • ⚠ Hoof health issues from poor mineral balance
Our nutritional strategy

How we solve it

  • Lactation-specific dairy mineral premixes balanced for forage-based diets
  • Bypass methionine and lysine to lift milk protein and yield
  • Yeast and live cultures to stabilise rumen pH on energy-dense rations
  • Targeted transition-cow blends to ease calving and restart production
