determines the success of your farm
We offer you a customised solution
for each phase of your animal's life
Your animals respond differently depending on their age, characteristics, nutrition, deficiencies, etc. That’s why we’ve developed a wide range of products and many complementary services to meet your rearing needs.
For healthy growth
The first weeks of your animals’ life are crucial and will determine how they develop on your farm. The first treatments you administer are vital and can minimise any risks of infection.
During the post-birth period, the breeder pays close attention to the mother and newborn. Establishing the farm’s future ruminant should be supported in complete safety and efficiency.
Your animals’ growth performance will be forged from birth, but even more so at weaning. Therefore, animals should be fed a forage-based diet supplemented with trace elements, vitamins and amino acids to ensure the rumen develops properly.
For optimal production
In the lactation cycle of ruminants, the dry period is the phase when the animal is at rest and no longer produces milk. During this period, the breeder should be particularly watchful because it will determine the following lactation.
At the start of lactation, ruminants produce colostrum for newborns. Thereafter, breeders should support milk production according to their objectives. Lactation will gradually diminish until the mother enters the dry period, which will take her to the next parturition.
Preparing for animal reproduction requires an adapted diet and nutrient supplements to meet the breeder’s objective to optimise his/her reproductive performances.
A breeder looks to optimise their rations for two reasons: a) farm profitability, and b) animal well-being. A tailored mineral formula will optimise performances according to the objectives the breeder sets.
Getting your animals ready for grazing is key in the management of certain herds, and breeders should prepare for this sudden dietary change as it can disturb the animals’ digestive system and provoke metabolic dysfunctions.
The rumen is the most important factor in dietary efficiency. During the fattening period, the breeder has to find the best compromise between cost, ADGs and carcass quality.
To maintain good health
Meeting your animals’ energy needs is crucial to ensuring they can face difficult conditions. Difagri has the market’s most extensive range of glucogenic products in France.
An animal’s health directly impacts its well-being, the breeder’s working conditions and farm profitability. Animals are constantly subjected to numerous pathogens on the farm, which penalise their performance.
Their environment plays a decisive role in safeguarding their well-being and their performance. Getting the most out of a balanced ecosystem is priceless as it will maintain a healthy environment for your animals.
Any protein or fat imbalances will lead to a less efficient digestive system. The breeder should therefore limit these dietary imbalances by incorporating correctors into the ration so that the body can efficiently metabolise essential nutrients.
