Posilac - Sometribove Zinc Suspension for Injection
A healthy cow supplemented with Posilac produces an average of 10 more pounds of milk per day.1 In addition to other sound production practices, dairy producers supplement cows with Posilac to help produce a little more milk while using fewer resources. And a little more milk means a more successful dairy business and a more abundant food supply for an ever-growing global population—all while providing quality, nutritious dairy foods for families around the world.
Adding Posilac to your dairy management program allows healthy cows supplemented with Posilac to produce an average of 10 more pounds of milk per day.1 This added productivity reduces your cost of production by 3%-5%, or approximately $0.50-$1.50/cwt.2 When you look at how milk production impacts your bottom line, Posilac can make a world of difference.
