Drytop is a bolus designed to enrich the dry cow diet with minerals and vitamins.
Dry period
Not so long ago dry cows could’ve been described as “neglected cows” that received lower quality feed, especially in the far-off period. However, the dry period is a crucial moment in the cow’s lactation cycle, during which the cow prepares herself for the next lactation. Any problems during this period will have a negative impact on the cow’s and calf’s health and on the milk production. Providing sufficient minerals is essential. Drytop provides the cow with minerals and vitamins during the whole dry period, and in this way we want to change farming into Stressless Farming.
