BLM FOR THE RUMEN

FULVIC ACID

Fulvic acid is the best electrolyte known to man. It stimulates the rumen, its ability to bond and dissolve minerals and nutritional elements and is capable of carrying 60 or more minerals and trace elements into cells.

AMINO ACIDS

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, they breakdown proteins in the rumen in conjunction with nitrogen. The proteins are broken down in to amino acids which then transform into thousands of different protein forms that the animal can use.

SEAGRASS EXTRACT

‘Seagrass Posidonia australis' is high in 17 naturally occurring amino acids, also major and minor trace elements in natural form.

UREA

Urea is used as a form of protein, when there is a lack of protein in the diet. It affects the microbial protein in the rumen which helps the rumen to better utilize low-protein feeds (dry feed).

SULPHUR

Sulphur aids in microbial digestion and protein synthesis in the rumen.

How to use BLM

As a stockman myself the main aim of developing these products was "keep it simple."
No matter what medium you are using, water, feed, boom spray or orally administering the principal is still the same.

NUMBER OF STOCK x 50mls = AMOUNT OF PRODUCT = 6 WEEKS
EG: 200 Cattle x 50mls = 10ltrs for period of 6 weeks

BLM does not dilute in water so it can be put in a 200ltr. or 10,000 ltr. tank, volume of water does not matter.
When mixing with feed simply work out your ration per animal then your BLM dose, for a six week period.
Dose rate of 10 mls for Sheep and 50 mls for cattle for a six week period.

Example 1: A prime lamb producer in the Limestone Coast Region of SA run mobs of 600 lambs.
Use the adult dose of 10 mls for six week (6 ltrs.of BLM)
They move there lambs every 3 to 4 days on to new lucerne so every two weeks they dose their troughs with 2 ltrs of BLM using the BLM dispenser.(see BLM dispenser page).

Example 2: Cattle producer in the Kimberly Region of WA, has 1,200 head of cattle per bore.
Adult dose of 50 mls (60 ltrs for six weeks) for 1,200 head.
He puts 10 lts of BLM in his tanks again using the BLM dispenser once a week while doing his weekly bore run.

Example 3: Dairy farmer on the Great Ocean Road region of Victoria use an in line water medicator and puts 80 mls per 1000 ltr of water.

Example 4: Beef producer in central Victoria sprays BLM on to his hay; he only does this once every six weeks. Runs mobs of 30 cows so 1.5 ltrs sprayed on to the hay once it has been fed out before the cows are moved in to the paddock.

Example 5: Merino breeder, in the Eyre Peninsular region of South Australia uses a combination of oral and water medication, when his stock are in the yards he orally doses and the periods in between he doses in the tanks every six weeks with BLM dispenser.

Example 6: Prime lamb and vealer producer in central Tasmania.:
Calculates how many stock they have on each water point for ewes & lambs, cows & calves.
Then cleans his trough and doses the tank with the correct amount of BLM which waters four paddocks and makes sure to leave the stock in those paddocks for 3 to 4 days while the BLM dispenser meters out the BLM.
They only dose once every six weeks.
