Parkash Transition Mix -21: The Key to a Smooth Calving and a Strong Lactation
The three weeks leading up to calving, often called the “transition period,” are the most critical time in a dairy cow’s life. The cow undergoes massive physiological changes, from preparing for birth to the start of lactation. This period puts immense stress on her body, making her susceptible to metabolic diseases like milk fever, ketosis, and retained placenta. A well-designed feeding program during this time is essential for a successful calving, a strong start to lactation, and the overall health and productivity of the cow.
Parkash Transition Mix (-21) is a scientifically formulated feed designed to meet the specific nutritional demands of dry cows 21 days before calving. It is not just a feed; it is a vital part of a transition management strategy that helps prevent common health issues, supports a smooth delivery, and ensures a quick and healthy post-calving recovery.
Why Proper Transition Feeding Matters
The right nutrition during the transition period is vital for several reasons. It helps to:
- Prevent Metabolic Diseases: Providing the correct balance of calcium, phosphorus, and other minerals helps to prevent life-threatening conditions like milk fever.
- Boost Immunity: The cow’s immune system is under stress, and a fortified diet helps to prevent infections.
- Prepare for Lactation: A properly fed cow will have a better body condition and energy reserves to support the high demands of milk production, leading to a higher peak milk yield and improved overall performance.
- Ensure a Healthy Calf: The nutrition the mother receives directly impacts the health and vitality of the newborn calf.
Key Features and Benefits of Parkash Transition Mix (-21)
- High Levels of Vitamin E and Minerals: Our formula is enriched with a high concentration of Vitamin E and essential minerals. Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that boosts the immune system and helps reduce the incidence of retained placenta and other post-calving complications. The mineral balance is carefully formulated to manage the cow’s calcium metabolism, significantly reducing the risk of milk fever.
- Better Health Before and After Calving: The specialized nutrients in Parkash Transition Mix (-21) support the cow’s overall health during this stressful period. It helps maintain her energy balance, reduces metabolic stress, and improves her resilience to common health challenges both before and immediately after calving.
- Aids in Rapid Post-Calving Uterine Recovery: After calving, the cow’s uterus needs to return to its normal size and function quickly to prepare for the next breeding cycle. The mineral and vitamin profile in this mix, particularly the high levels of antioxidants, helps to reduce inflammation and aids in the rapid expulsion of the placenta and the swift cleaning of the uterus. This leads to a healthier reproductive tract and a shorter calving interval.
- Specifically for Dry Cows: This feed is formulated exclusively for dry cows in the final 21 days before calving. It is a critical component of a successful dry cow management program, ensuring that she is properly prepared for the rigors of calving and the start of her lactation.
Feeding Guidelines for Parkash Transition Mix (-21)
For optimal results, follow these feeding recommendations carefully.
- Feeding Period: Use this feed for dry cows starting from 21 days before the expected calving date, and continue until calving.
- Feeding Quantity: Provide 3-4 kg per day, depending on the availability and quality of the roughage being fed.
- Monitor and Adjust: The exact amount may need to be adjusted based on the cow’s body condition and the quality of other feeds. It is important to avoid over-feeding or under-feeding during this critical period.
