PRODUCTS

AGRICAL- superfine lime dressing

AGRICAL has been designed and graded to suit many applications on your farm. Highly effective for rapid neutralisation of floor surfaces to help prevent the growth of pathogenic bacteria.

It's primary use is in the control of odour and maintenance of sanitary conditions in livestock buildings such as cubicle houses, calving pens and lambing boxes, feed lots, piggeries and stables. AGRICAL is a superfine powder, which makes it super absorbent.

Unlike limestone, which contains a high level of grit, it will not damage hoof surfaces.

Equally important, it is fine enough to be held in suspension in slurry so that there is no build-up on tank floors which is a major problem with other dressings.

BACTICUBE- an essential aid in the control of environmental mastitis

Also suitable for use in all farm areas where hygiene is of utmost importance

BACTICUBE cubicle liner contains Apex, a unique blend of natural plant extracts,especially selected for their bactericidal properties and proven effectiveness against Streptococci, Staphylococci and E. Coli, the major mastitis causing organisms.

Mastitis is without doubt the most important disease on Irish dairy farms today.
