ENHANCING CALF IMMUNITY
A 2018 New Zealand study2 demonstrated the health benefits of injecting calves with MULTIMIN® early in life. The effect was rapid (within three days of injection), with death and disease consistently halved at all ages that calves were injected.

ENHANCING COW HEALTH
Recent New Zealand research3 has shown that an injection of MULTIMIN® in dairy cows 14-28 days before calving resulted in a halving of clinical mastitis, and 25% reduction in subclinical mastitis.

IMPROVING COW FERTILITY
A New Zealand study4 has shown that injecting dairy cows four weeks before mating lowered empty rates by over 3%, halved pregnancy losses, and moved the average conception date forward by three days, with a ROI of 5:1.
Overseas research has also shown that injecting bulls 12 weeks prior to mating improves semen quality and quantity.
