Fiber Start

High Nutritional Forage Fibre For Calves

Fiber Start® is a moist, high nutritional forage fibre comprising of fresh-cut lucerne designed to give the calf the best possible start to be healthy and more productive. What makes FiberStart® so unique is the advanced process that results in a superior high nutritional fibre. FiberStart® will take the calves from being totally milk reliant to ones that thrive and develop to their full potential with no weaning check.

Start® begins full stomach development and promotes rumen growth while at the same time improving enzyme activity and establishing correct microflora (bacteria) populations. Start® is an easily digested fibre that allows the animal to follow a natural path of development and provides quality essential protein for sustained growth. Ruminants will develop heavier, stronger rumens, and will ultimately be better-performing healthier animals.

Research has shown that Fiber Start® can alter the primary papillae growth and enzyme population; setting the calf up for increased production later in life. By creating this early digestive development the calf is off to a great start with a rumen that has more surface area offering better efficiency and absorption of nutrients. This specially prepared fibre is also designed to create an environment within the rumen where an explosion of enzyme and microflora activity takes place putting the calf well on the path to true four-stomach development and greater digestive capacity.
