SILVER CALCIUM BLOCK
Calcium is one of the minerals that is abundant in nature. However, for livestock that are bred outside their natural environments, the calcium content in feeds may be insufficient due to the demands for productivity. The calcium sources added to the feed must also pass easily through the digestive system. Calcium requirements can vary individually for each animal; factors such as proximity to calving, the amount of milk during lactation, and the stage of lactation contribute to these variations. Additionally, calcium plays an important role in bone development and growth stages in animals. Considering the role of calcium ions, which are crucial for the nervous system, the range of calcium requirements can be quite broad. Since it may not always be possible to determine individual needs, the Silver Calcium Block is useful in meeting the calcium needs of animals.
Silver blocks contain all necessary trace elements; however, the concentration of a particular trace element can become more prominent, helping to meet the animals' needs and detect more required compounds in the body. Therefore, the color differentiation in silver blocks is significant for easily identifying deficiencies, especially in herds.
