HIGH CONCENTRATION DRENCH - STILL A PROVEN PERFORMER FOR CATTLE PRODUCERS

Recent research has found that using a high concentration injectable drench resulted in steers that were 29.5 kg heavier than untreated animals and 9.9 kg heavier than Dectomax treated animals over 127 days¹.

Virbac Australia collaborated with the NSW DPI and Local Lands Service (LLS) to study the response to injectable drenches.

• 280 mixed-breed steers, sourced from over 60 properties
• Mean starting weight of 275 kg
• Mixed worm infestation with a high level of Barber’s Pole

HIGH CONCENTRATION DRENCH DRIVES CATTLE WEIGHT GAIN

The research found that Cydectin Long Acting for cattle is still highly effective against the deadly barber’s pole worm.

EFFICACY IS IMPORTANT, BUT WEIGHT GAIN IS EVERYTHING

Results proved the cattle drench efficacy is important, but weight gain is critical

Over 127 Days Cydectin Long Acting group presented:

• An additional 9.9 Kg compared to Dectomax Injection
• An additional 29.5 kg compared to the untreated group
• That’s up to $52.00 extra per head.**

Treating 100 weaners with Cydectin Long Acting cattle profitability can be increased up to $5,200 compared to commonly used injectable drenches such as Dectomax Injection.

Cydectin Long Acting for Cattle - The High Concentration Injection for Cattle

It delivers 5X TIMES more drench active to the animal than 1% injectable drenches, including Dectomax Injection, Dectomax V, and Cydectin Injection.

High Concentration Drench means improved worm control and longer persistence resulting in improved cattle productivity (Weight Gain).

Don’t miss your shot. Choose Cydectin Long Acting and improve cattle productivity.
