24·7 Smartrace Plus Calf is designed for situations where iodine, cobalt and selenium supplementation is essential over the growing period and where additional copper is required.

These erode and dissolve completely thus providing a continuous and regular supply of nutrients to the animal.

Efficacy
24·7 Smartrace Plus Calf has been the subject of a detailed R&D programme both in house and in New Zealand. A variant of this bolus technology has been successfully launched in NZ. Trials in cattle have confirmed an excellent sustained release profile, which ensures that copper, iodine, cobalt and selenium levels are maintained throughout the active life of the bolus.
Administration
One 58 g bolus should be given to each animal.
Always use the approved Agrimin cattle bolus Applicator B.
Smartrace Plus Calf boluses are packed in units of 20 (enough for 20 calves).
