Early Lactation Maximize your Profitability A

Early Lactation

Maximize your Profitability

From optimal transition
management to peak
milk performance
with
Jefo’s precision
nutrition solutions
.

In North America, the negative effects of suboptimal transition result in the lost opportunity to capture your herd’s full milk & profit potential.

The synegistic effect between our transition and lactation blends will result in optimizing early lactation performance.

B Vitamins are essential for the overall metabolism of the dairy cow.

B Vitamins act as Metabolic Reactors* to produce energy and protein, resulting in less energy loss and fewer health disorders.

*Metabolic Activators are B vitamins which are involved in various
metabolism as enzymes cofactors (activators)

Jefo blend of protected B vitamins for Transition

  • Glucose synthesis in the liver
  • Works synergistically with
    Folic Acid
  • Methyl donor
  • Improves fertility
  • Works synergistically with B12
  • Methyl donor
  • Improves fertility
  • Protects cells from oxidative stress
  • Milk protein synthesis
  • Increases milk fat
  • Synergistically works with
    folic acid and B12
  • Methyl donor
  • Protects cells from oxidative stress

COMBINED

Jefo blend of protected B vitamins for Lactation

  • Glucose synthesis in the liver
  • Methyl donor
  • Improves fertility
  • Cofactor for methyl groups
  • Essential coenzyme in
    carbohydrate, fat and protein
    metabolism
  • Involved with gluconeogenesis,
    propionate metabolism, fatty acid
    synthesis, and amino acid
    degradation.
  • Follicular development 
  • Protects cell from
    oxidative stress
  • Metabolism of carbohydrates 
  • Synthesis of proteins and prostaglandins
  • Oocyte and early embryonic
    development
  • Follicular development
  • Protects cells from oxidative stress
  • Energy generation cycle
  • Synthesis of essential fatty acids and protein

Feeding protected B Vitamins during the transition period results in significantly higher milk production in early lactation, translating into higher lifetime component yield.

Greater performance yield with protected B vitamins

  • Act as enzyme cofactors involved in the energy and protein metabolism of the dairy cow
  • Involved in glucose synthesis in the liver
  • Enhanced immune readiness

Maximize milk production

  • Increase dry matter intake
  • Easier start in lactation
  • Reduce the risk of subclinical ketosis
  • Reduce udder infections

An increase up to
4 kg DMI /day
through early lactation

Improve reproduction

  • Minimize metabolic disease
  • Faster return to positive energy balance
  • Improved oocyte and follicular health
  • Greater reproductive performance

Our research shows a ROI of 8:1
