1 Maximize MP for a win-win.

2 Stay focused on the race. We ll help you avoid pit stops. During each animal s life cycle there can be many unexpected stops and starts along the way. Think of Arm & Hammer Animal Nutrition as your pit crew, here to deliver the right advice and the right fuel at the right time. Together we ll get the job done and the race won by focusing on your Animals First. Productivity Always. Fuel up on quality protein: See cows milk more and heifers grow fast. FERMENTEN is the source of peptides, amino acids and nucleotides that maximize metabolizable protein (MP) production in the rumen. For lactating herds more MP means improved feed efficiency and increased milk and component production. For heifers FERMENTEN helps animals reach breeding size faster and join the milking herd sooner for greater lifetime productivity. The FERMENTEN advantage. FERMENTEN generates more MP so cows milk more and heifers grow fast. Throughout the transitions of their life cycle, FERMENTEN improves herd profits. 1 For the safe and consistent route to more MP choose FERMENTEN, which contains no animal byproducts.

3 It s like getting more miles to the gallon. FERMENTEN delivers the amino acid building blocks for greater MP from rumen bacteria to aid in nutrient utilization to boost production and improve feed efficiency. Cows fed FERMENTEN boosted milk and component production while reducing dietary protein needs 1 by 0.62 pounds per cow per day. 2 MP is the ideal form of protein that is digested postruminally and supplies essential amino acids to the cow. *Based on continuous culture fermenter studies. **Based on a controlled study with 45 cows over 3 months.

4 More milk. Greater efficiency. Research 4 conducted in 2012 showed an improvement in milk yield, energy-corrected milk (ECM) and feed efficiency in cows fed FERMENTEN compared to the control and blood meal diets.

5 Getting heifers on the road sooner. An on-farm trial 6 conducted on a large dairy in north central U.S. fed FERMENTEN to 2,200 heifers from weaning to calving at a rate of 3% of ration dry matter. FERMENTEN HEIFERS MET BREEDING HEIGHT AT 11 MONTHS FERMENTEN HEIFERS MET BREEDING WEIGHT AT 11 MONTHS Hip Height (in.) Average FERMENTEN Heights Hoffman Standard - Large Ave. Average age at breeding (with FERMENTEN) = 330 days Standard breeding age (without FERMENTEN) = 420 days 170 days Age (days) Weight (lbs.) Average FERMENTEN Weights Hoffman Standard - Large Ave. Average age at breeding (with FERMENTEN) = 330 days 60 days Age (days) Standard breeding age (without FERMENTEN) = 390 days Heifers fed FERMENTEN reached breeding height approximately 170 days sooner than heifers not fed FERMENTEN and 90 days sooner than the Hoffman Standard. Breeding weight was reached approximately 60 days sooner than the Hoffman Standard. Reaching breeding size three months earlier resulted in 6 : Earlier calving with no negative impacts on health or production. More lifetime productivity. Improved profitability. 4 Producers can meet heifer weight and height goals by delivering the high-quality, efficient source of MP found in FERMENTEN.

6 Maximize MP: make sure you re getting the best value. Feeding similar levels of crude protein (CP) delivers vastly different MP levels, which can lead to unnecessary overfeeding protein. FERMENTEN drives MP production to deliver the best value. CP LEVELS VS. MP DELIVERED* Crude Protein Metabolizable Protein Cost of 100 g MP $0.50 $0.45 Want comparative pricing for your herd?

7 Fuel up: recommended feeding rates. For feeding rates and considerations, work with your nutritionist to review ration MP estimates and account for increased bacterial protein production from FERMENTEN. Feed FERMENTEN as a primary protein source at a rate of 3% of total ration dry matter. Typical inclusion rates based on current and historical use: Cows Heifers Up to 3% ration dry matter 2 2.5% ration dry matter Navigate the life cycle journey with FERMENTEN.
