Introducing ProTect. Supplements for every lifestage and season

What is ProTect^®?

ProTect is a patented vitamin and mineral premix supplement developed to deliver safer, more profitable livestock performance.

ProTect is designed to:

Supercharged with OptiWise®.

All ProAgni supplements contain OptiWise®, a patented, innovative ingredient that activates the good bugs in the rumen delivering performance, sustainability & supercharged gains.

OptiWise powers the bugs that power the rumen.

How does ProTect work?

ProTect helps prevent acidosis by stabilising rumen pH and reducing metabolic stress. This supports a safer transition onto grain and better performance from day one.

ProAgni ProTect^® vs Industry ‘Control Diet’

Inducting animals onto grain sets up the rumen for the entire feeding period, but it’s also the riskiest. Issues during this period are costly and compounding.

The trial tested the effectiveness of ProAgni ProTect, an antibiotic-free, stand-alone vitamin and mineral premix, against a control group – fed a medicated premix, including ionophores.

Positive Results Without Antibiotics

Industry and university trials at the University of New England, West Texas A&M University, the Thomas Elder Institute, and Binginbar Farms have demonstrated positive results in the control of acidosis, competitive weight gain, and reduction of liver abscesses in cattle fed ProTect™, without the use of in-feed antibiotics or ionophores.

In cattle feed trials, ProTect products delivered a decreased incidence of lactic acidosis as well as increased live weight gains: 

More Live Weight

0 kg

improving carcass weight dressing by 19kg

Reduction of Feed

0 kg

required to gain 1kg of live weight

Commercial feedback:

“

The benefits of using ProAgni products from the beginning were obvious.

Rob & Jude Cooke of Cudal, NSW, went from producing 97kg of meat/ha/year to 300kg/ha/year in just five years.

“To make a $65.80/head net return after $25.20 in feed costs plus labour in six weeks is not a bad return.”

– Rob Cooke

“

The ProTect S supplement has had a direct impact on our bottom line

enhancing feed efficiency in a number of significant ways. Our lambs reach target weights faster while consuming less feed, and a remarkable average daily gain exceeding 500grams per head.”

– Ben Stanich, Feedlotter, WA, Australia

“

There was a 27% improvement on feed conversion using ProTect S compared to our Lasalocid Sodium based product,

I just feel so comfortable with the product. If it so happens that the meat works requires us to tick the box to say it’s antibiotic free, well we can do it.”

– DJ Castine, Sheep feedlotter, NSW

“

With ProTect we didn’t lose one animal

and when you are talking about stud rams you only need to lose a few and the cost of the loss starts mounting.”

– S Brien, Sheep stud, NSW

“

Increasing consumer expectations of food produced sustainably,

free of the use of non-therapeutic antibiotics and producing less emission is a priority for our operations. We believe ProTect™ provides a compelling commercial alternative to our traditional feed ration.”

– R Harris, Beef Feedlot, NSW
