Signs of a Trace Element Deficiency
Not all trace element deficiencies are obvious, but all deficiencies can have a major impact on animal health, livestock performance and farm profitability.
Look out for the trace element deficiency in cattle symptoms:

- Poor Condition
- Anaemia
- Infertility
- Abortion
- Poor Immunity
- Retained Cleansings
- Diarrhoea
- Bone Fractures
- White Muscle Disease
- Lameness
Subclinical Signs
- Poor Growth Rates
- Poor Milk Yields
- Poor Coats
- Poor Conception Rates
- Lethargy
- Calf Weakness
What’s Inside?
Cobalt is converted by rumen bacteria into vitamin B12, essential for energy metabolism, and therefore optimum growth. A constant supply of cobalt is needed.
lodine is an essential component of the thyroid hormones, responsible for regulating metabolism and body processes.
Selenium is essential for normal cell function and maintaining immunity levels. Selenium helps to neutralise harmful free radicals and protect cells from oxidative stress. Selenium is also important in supporting good fertility.
Copper (optional) is required for critical enzymes involved in energy metabolism, hormone production and red blood cell metabolism. A deficiency can be due to low dietary levels, or presence of antagonists in soil, water, or feed.
Also contains levels of manganese and zinc to support immunity, reproductive health, growth, and metabolism.

Looking to improve conception rates?
Trace elements are crucial to egg development, sperm quality, hormone regulation and overall reproductive health. Trace elements also help resist disease challenges that can interfere with conception and general fertility.
Without sufficient trace elements, cows may experience irregular cycles, poor conception rates, weak or non-viable embryos, longer calving intervals, and abortion.
Tracesure® Advanced Cattle XL is a single bolus that delivers a sustained release of essential trace elements for up to 6 months.
