ESTRUS SUPPRESSION

Estrus Suppression

 

HeifermaX® 500 (melengestrol acetate) is a liquid premix that increases rate of weight gain, improves feed efficiency and suppresses estrus (heat) in feedlot heifers. HeifermaX delivers:

  • Increased rate of weight gain

  • Improved efficiency

  • Fewer days to reach market weight

  • More consistent heifer performance

  • Fewer riding injuries

  • Likely reduction in carcass discounts due to bruising or dark cutters

Use of HeifermaX and implants are additive and will provide production and economic benefits. HeifermaX works well with both estrogenic and trenbolone (TBA) containing implants. Most research shows positive effects on carcass value, through increased quality grade, when melengestrol acetate is fed to heifers that receive TBA implants. Because HeifermaX is fed every day, it can cover gaps in implant programs due to duration or dosage mismatches.

HeifermaX requires no preharvest withdrawal and is approved for use with other commonly used feed additives. HeifermaX 500 is included in the feed through a liquid feed supplement or added via a micro ingredient machine.
