At SCC-Bolus, we focus on providing natural solutions for the health of dairy cows. An important stage in a dairy cow’s life is dry-off, where milk production is temporarily stopped. This process is crucial to the health of the cow and the quality of milk in the following lactation period. Our natural dry-off products are specially designed to make this transition smooth and safe without the use of antibiotics.
Drying is the period when a dairy cow temporarily stops producing milk, usually six to eight weeks before calving. During this period, the cow has a chance to recover from the previous lactation and prepare for the next one. This is essential for udder health and overall cow condition. A properly conducted dry-off process helps to reduce the risk of udder infections and promotes the production of healthy milk in the next lactation period.
SCC-Bolus offers a range of natural products specifically designed to support dry-off. Our dry matter boluses contain ingredients that promote udder health and strengthen the cow’s natural resistance. This allows dairy farms to avoid antibiotics, contributing to more sustainable and natural livestock farming. The boluses are easy to administer and have a long-lasting effect, providing effective support throughout the dry-off period.
Using natural curing products offers numerous benefits:
Healthier cows: The natural ingredients in our boluses improve overall cow health, leading to fewer health problems during and after dry-off. This results in higher milk production and better milk quality in the next lactation.
Increased resistance: Our products help strengthen the cows’ natural resistance, contributing to better protection against infections such as mastitis. A strong immune system is essential for preventing disease and maintaining a healthy herd.
Sustainability: By avoiding antibiotics, dairy farms contribute to a more sustainable and responsible livestock industry. This is not only good for the cows, but also for the environment and public health.
Products tested on dairy farms
Our drying products have been extensively tested on several dairy farms to ensure effectiveness and safety. We work closely with livestock producers to ensure our products meet the needs of cows and farm-specific conditions. By listening to farmers’ feedback and continuously improving our products, we are able to provide innovative and effective solutions that contribute to the health and well-being of dairy cows.
Natural alternatives to antibiotics
At SCC-Bolus, we believe in the power of natural ingredients. Our dry-off boluses are an excellent alternative to antibiotics without compromising the health and well-being of cows. By choosing natural solutions, livestock farmers can make a positive contribution to the overall health of their herd and the quality of their milk products. In addition, reducing the use of antibiotics helps prevent antibiotic resistance, which is a growing problem in modern livestock production.
