GVO 3. omega-3 fatty acids / mucin & fiibres contains premium prebiotics 1. Probiotics: Selected probiotics assist the calf in its development and offer important support in protecting it against pathogens, as well as improving the feed conversion. As the probiotics create a healthy balance of enterobacteria, the calf is better equiped to handle any stressful situations that may arise. Another important aspect is the formation of enzymes, as these enable the calf to digest non-lactic food and support an early intake of jbs kälbermüsli plus (cereal mix) and roughage. 2. Various nutrients are crucial when it comes to ensuring a calf s positive development right from the start: Manganese, zinc, copper and cobald are all components of digestive enzymes and have - just like selenium and vitamin E positive effects on the immune system. In the thyroid gland, iodine is needed for a hormone which plays an important part in metabolism and growth. Growth necessitates the development of a stable skeleton, which in turn requires vitamin D. jbs profimix k contains all these essential nutrients plus vitamin A. 3. Due to selected ingredients, jbs profimix k is able to form mucilage, which coats the intestinal wall and protects it. Furthermore, the calf is supplied with useful omega-3 fatty acids. These acids cannot be synthesized by the calf itself, yet they are vitally important for skin protection and the immune system. Valuable fibre supports the intestinal functions. 8 9 2. contains micronutrients and vitamins that support the calf s development

Feeding trial with jbs profimix k and jbs kälberpaste There are many possible reasons why calves suffer from diarrhoea early in life. One of them is a pathogen called Cryptosporidium. On one of our trial farms, this pathogen caused an increased occurrence of diarrhoea; 20 % of the calves died. As the calves on this farm are reared to restock the herd, such frequent sickness and loss of calves was especially troublesome. Preventive measures used consisted of using Halocur and a suitable antibiotic along with infusions in case of emergencies. Due to the positive feedback we had received from customers on jbs profimix k, we instigated a trial aimed to take a closer look at the prophylactic use of a combination of jbs kälberpaste and jbs profimix k. 24 calves participated in this trial. Before the trial, faecal samples were taken from several calves, one of which was positive for Cryptosporidium. The calves were given a dose of jbs kälberpaste directly after colostrum-feeding, which was repeated the next day. From the third day on, a daily dose of jbs profimix k was added to their unskimmed milk ration. jbs profimix k was administered up until the 10th day of life when the calves were switched to milk replacer. Results The combination of jbs kälberpaste and jbs profimix k had positive effects on the calves health. All 24 calves in the trial have developed well, there were no losses. Both products were easily incorporated into the daily routine and were fed without any problems - not least due to the tasty vanilla flavour. There were isolated cases of diarrhoea, in which case the affected calves continued to be fed with jbs profimix k and received a one-time treatment with antibiotics. The calves continued to drink well during that time resulting in a fast recovery. Halocur was not used over the course of this trial. The farm manager s time was saved, and workload reduced, as the calves required less treatment. This farm is still using jbs kälberpaste and jbs profimix k, as not only are the calves a lot fitter, but the farm manager was finally able to take sundays off again! 10 11

Belgian company Nukamel has over 60 years of experience in producing milk replacers for calves. This long-term expertise resulted in the development of milk replacers containing high-quality raw materials, which then undergo special manufacturing processes. They are readily soluble and suitable for bucket and/or automatic calf feeding systems. Healthy calves - Nukamel s products support optimum growth help in exploiting the genetic potential excellent growth without risking adiposis (fattening of udder) reduce health problems - e. g. diarrhoea stimulate roughage intake Emulsifier: the emulsifier is water soluble and works alongside the animals bile salts it balances any shortcoming in the liver s bile salt formation thus improving the digestibility of fat and feed Probiotics: Emulsizym - Nukamel s special breeding concept Bioactive peptides: BioPlus 2B offers excellent protection against pathogenic enterobacteria and improves the feed conversion. Furthermore, enzymes are formed which facilitate the digestion of non-lactic food. Enterococcus faecium (lactic acid bacteria) are part of a healthy intestinal flora and stimulate the reproduction of beneficial enterobacteria. Furthermore, they prevent digestive disorders such as diarrhoea, restore intestinal health and strengthen the immune system. are created by fermentation of raw materials are efficient against pathogens stimulate the immune system improve the availability of minerals Antibacterial properties: of short- and mediumchained fatty acids excellent protection against the reproduction of undesirable intestinal bacteria. The basis of Nukamel s technology Dextrose - lactic acid antibacterial properties in the gastrointestinal tract prevents bacterial contamination of the milk low intestinal ph ensures optimum digestion of enzymes high palatability Proteins - bioactive peptides antibacterial properties improve immunity, reduce hypertension improve protein digestibility Nutritional emulsifiers improve fat digestibility improve feed intake enhance milk replacer s solubility and stability Controlled fluidity (automatic calf feeders) constant and free flowing properties steady density (consistent, programmed application) 12 13

Spray cooling Spray cooling is a patented process exclusively used for animal feed. Emulsified fat is heated, then sprayed into a swirl of milk powder components and cooled down to -20 C. The fat crystallises, creating a structure of vegetable fats, oil and milk components. This structure ensures that the calf is able to digest all of this simultaneously. A feeding trial demonstrated the advantages of this manufacturing process compared to spray drying. In this trial, all calves were fed with the same milk replacer once manufactured by spray cooling, for the controll group by spray drying.

16 High-quality raw materials The dairy raw materials in Nukamel s milk replacers all contain essential ingredients like immunoglobulin, peptides and lactose. In addition, the milk powder is not heated as much as for example in the chocolate industry, meaning that the protein s excellent digestibility is preserved. In order to find differences in the digestion and development of the calves, a feeding trial was conducted. This trial used the same milk replacer for both groups as well as water and the same type of concentrated feed. The heat treatment of the milk powder in the milk replacer was the only difference between the groups. The chart shows that the slightly heated milk powder contains a protein which is easier to digest. The calves from that group showed a increased daily weight gain, a better weight at weaning and a higher intake of concentrated feed than the calves in the group where the milk powder was heated to high temperatures. slightly heated milk powder (Nukamel) milk powder heated to high temperatures weight on day 56 93.52 kg 91.47 kg daily weight gain 859 g 822 g concentrated feed intake 557 g 544 g Feeding schedule with Nukamel Yellow jbs kälbermüsli plus hay water amount of water + milk replacer age Nukamel Yellow 5-6 days colostrum / unskimmed milk feeding: 4 l/d 2 nd week 145-160 g/l* 6 litres ad libitum fresh hay twice a day ad libitum 3 rd week 145-160 g/l* 6 litres ad libitum fresh hay twice a day ad libitum 4 th week 145-160 g/l* 8 litres ad libitum fresh hay twice a day ad libitum 5 th week 145-160 g/l* 8 litres ad libitum fresh hay twice a day ad libitum 6 th week 145-160 g/l* 8 litres ad libitum fresh hay twice a day ad libitum 7 th week 145-160 g/l* 8 litres ad libitum fresh hay twice a day ad libitum 8 th week 145-160 g/l* 6 litres 0.5 kg/day fresh hay twice a day ad libitum 9 th week 145-160 g/l* 6 litres 1 kg/day fresh hay twice a day ad libitum 10 th week 145-160 g/l* 4 litres 1.5 kg/day fresh hay twice a day ad libitum This feeding schedule is intended for autmatic calf feeders. *The concentration of the drink depends upon the energy demand (observe higher energy demand in winter!)
