In the early lactation period, energy requirements increase for milk production forcing the cow to utilize her own reserves.
Causing a domino effect resulting in poorer fertility
Ref.: Bradford et al., 2015
Negative energy balance increases the risk of developing metabolic disorders, such as clinical and subclinical ketosis.
Disease Plus body condition loss is more serious, resulting in 20% fewer cows pregnant (Riberio et al 2017)
Cows diagnosed with subclinical ketosis during the fresh period are 3 times more likely to develop metritis.

Ensure transition period success by feeding protected B vitamins blends.
B complex vitamins are essential for overall metabolism, acting as enzymatic cofactors at the cellular level. Main benefits include increased dry matter intake, reduced energy lost that translates into less metabolic disorders.
Ref.: Morisson et “al.”, 2018 (ADSA and JDS)
Jefo Protected B vitamins will help fresh cow problems such as sub-clinical ketosis, mastitis and metritis:
