Optimate, a 100 percent natural feed additive, provides an effective solution for protecting animals from mycotoxins, enhancing overall feed performance without relying on synthetic additives.In addition to this, you%u2019ll see vast improvements in your feed conversion rates, reduced scours, improvement in your nutritional uptake and overall health and mortality benefits, and it%u2019s certified organic.What is Optimate?Optimate is a natural toxin binder made from zeolite and is used to reduce the harmful effects of mycotoxins in the feed of cattle, pigs, goats, sheep and poultry. Mycotoxins, particularly aflatoxins, can negatively impact animal health and reduce productivity.Optimate is registered with Agricultural Compounds and Veterinary Medicines (registration number A11800) and has been scientifically reviewed to ensure its efficacy across various animal species. Optimate is BioGro certified, making it suitable for organic farming systems.Benefits of OptimateToxin binding for enhanced healthPigs are particularly vulnerable to feed contaminants such as mycotoxins, which can cause growth reduction, digestive issues and even immunosuppression. Optimate binds these toxins, preventing them from being absorbed into the bloodstream and reducing their harmful effects. By neutralising aflatoxins and other contaminants, this product promotes healthier animals and improves feed safety.One hundred percent natural and safeOptimate is entirely natural and free from antibiotics, making it a safe choice for both young and adult pigs. This product works as a complementary addition to a well-balanced diet and is not a replacement for other feed components such as energy or therapeutics.Improved feed efficiencyOptimate helps animals utilise nutrients more effectively. Healthier digestive systems lead to better growth rates, productivity and improved FCRs, which is particularly important in high-performance pig farming.Reduced scoursThe zeolite in Optimate not only assists the animal to best utilise feed and nutrients but will produce drier faeces and less scours for better bedding health and moisture control. It also contributes to the reduction of ammonia emissions from manure, improving the overall environmental conditions for young livestock. Suitable for organic farmingOptimate is a BioGrocertified input, making it a reliable option for maintaining the health of livestock in systems where synthetic additives are not allowed.Optimate will costeffectively improve your FCRs and animal weight gain through improved health, better feed utilisation and drier faeces.The net result is that you%u2019ll bring pigs to market quicker or with better weight for less cost because your feed rate will decrease, utilisation will increase and overall animal and housing health will improve.How to use optimateInclude Optimate at an inclusion rate of 1-2.5 percent of the daily dry matter feed intake. Typically, one 25kg bag of Optimate is recommended per tonne of supplementary feed. It can be fed through various methods, including in feed troughs, in-shed feed systems or via mixer wagons.Use alongside ZorbiFresh bedding additive for maximum on-farm results. ZorbiFresh binds ammonia, dries litter and decreases shavings cost and usage.For more information, call Paul on 0400 006 065 or email paul.buffey@bpmnz.co.nz Ph: 08 8359 1588 E: sales@titanfan.com.auMADE IN AUSTRALIA FOR AUSTRALIAN CONDITIONS SINCE 1990LOCALLY manufactured at Titan%u2019s factory 12-14 Kenworth Rd, Gepps Cross, South Australia 5094ORIGINAL Stir Fan available ON/OFF 1ph/3phNEWStir Fan FH800/0.37kw/4 blade/1ph/3ph EC (variable speed 200 rpm %u2013 1000 rpm)100% NATURALTOXIN BINDERNO ANTIBIOTICSSCIENTIFICALLY REVIEWED%u2022 100% natural, made in New Zealand%u2022 Safe for use in all young & adult animals%u2022 BioGro certified input for organicsA registered toxin binder that offers year-round natural, mycotoxin support for poultry, pigs, cattle, goats and sheep.THE ORIGINAL - MYCOTOXIN BINDERTMTo organise samples or a quote, call Paul on 0400 006 065 or email paul.buffey@bpmnz.co.nzSCAN HERE FOR MORE PRODUCT INFORMATIONAVAILABLE25KG | BULKNatural mycotoxin protection with enhanced feed conversion rates, health and growth for pigs
