What farmers say about the Milk Start

“As a matter of course, we administer an AHV Milk Start Bolus to every cow as she calves in. The added calcium and phosporus help her during challenging periods.“
Jenna McConnellCounty Tyrone, Northern Ireland
“From the third lactation onwards, we systematically administer an AHV Milk Start Bolus after calving. This means that we take a pro-active approach in facing post-calving challenges.”
Mathieu CardietBrittany, France
