Colostrum: "Four golden rules"

The “four golden rules” of colostrum feeding are: 1. speed, 2. quantity, 3. quality and 4. cleanliness.

In addition, it can be useful to enrich the colostrum with a complementary feed consisting of high-quality colostrum powder, vitamins and probiotics (BEWI-SAN Calf Start) to support the calf’s health and immunity.

Reaching 1,000 g daily weight gain

For optimal growth in calf rearing, it’s not only the amount of milk replacer that matters – the quality of nutrients also plays a key role. Daily weight gains of 1,000 g require sufficient energy as a foundation, along with an adequate supply of high-quality protein.

Depending on the farm's requirements, we recommend different products from our BEWI-MILK® calf milk range.

Interview with Klaus Dann

Through genomic selection, high-quality feed, and a clear strategy, Klaus Dann has built a high-performing herd. BEWI-MILK® AM 5 plays a central role during the milk feeding phase, laying the foundation for future peak performance early on.

By continuously optimising feeding strategies and testing new concepts, he is consistently developing his herd further.

New ways in aquaculture

Aquaculture continues to grow – and is set to play a central role in feeding the world of tomorrow.

With over 60 years of expertise and our advanced fat-based technologies, we’re strengthening our aquaculture focus.

Our goal: Healthy, stable and water-safe formulations based on high-quality fats and plant-based ingredients.

Heat stress: Relieving the rumen!

Heatwaves trigger a cascade of physiological reactions. To avoid overheating, cows reduce their internal heat production – they eat less and drink more to relieve the rumen.

Providing additional energy through high-starch concentrates can backfire, increasing the risk of ruminal acidosis.

Heat? Think capsaicin!

Phytogenic feed additives like capsaicin can improve thermal tolerance in heat-stressed pigs – while also supporting gut health and strengthening the immune system.

With BEWI-FATRIX® CX and BEWI-FATRIX® Fortify, we offer two innovative feed supplements containing Capsicum annuum – designed to support metabolism during periods of increased demand.

"Gut it!"

Our goal is to create healthy animal nutrition together with you.

That is why we focus on natural feeding concepts that can help to develop the intestinal health of your animals as early as possible and maintain it in the long term.
