Enhance your livestock’s performanc­e with Challenger

-

Whether you’re bringing out sheep for the summer shows or a bull for the sales, finding a feed that supports high-performing stock is vital.

The nutrition team at East Coast Viners have developed a unique Challenger range of feeds to improve health, fertility, longevity and performanc­e in your pedigree stock. Our Challenger range comprises three different feeds designed to support your livestock through every stage of developmen­t.

All feeds are formulated with high-quality raw materials and a fully balanced mineral package to support animal health and fertility. The beef products in the Challenger range also contain our own unique combinatio­n of Biosprint live yeast and Xtract feed additive which promote feed efficiency while enhancing growth and performanc­e.

Challenger Complete

Challenger Complete is a high-energy coarse mix suitable for both cattle and sheep. Formulated with quality micronised raw materials including barley, maize and peas, this 18% protein mix is ideal for starting to creep feed lambs and calves.

The addition of soya, in the form of soya nuts, provides a quality source of bypass protein which benefits milk production, while optimising weight gain and carcass quality.

Challenger Elite

Challenger Elite is a 16% protein, high-quality blend for pedigree cattle. Formulated with micronised raw materials, quality protein sources and high maize content, this feed is designed to promote growth while putting on flesh.

A high inclusion of sugar beet with the addition of Home n’ Dry treated barley ensures the Challenger Elite will bring your cattle out in the best condition while reducing the risk of acidosis and feed-related issues. The inclusion of Biosprint live yeast and Xtract feed additive in the high-spec mineral package further improves feed conversion and daily live weight gain.

Challenger Excel

Challenger Excel Nuts is a 14% protein, high-energy compound for pedigree cattle. Featuring high inclusions of maize and barley, the balanced starch content is ideal for putting on flesh and enhancing carcass conformati­on. The presence of sugar beet ensures safety in the form of fibre while supplying additional energy.

Challenger Excel is formulated with the same beef mineral package containing Biosprint and Xtract but with the addition of Acidbuf, a rumen buffer. This helps to stabilise rumen pH while improving digestion and enhancing health and performanc­e.
