  6. Cow Comfort • Bunk space • Mobility • Standing time • Lying time • Barn design • Lameness • Hock injuries

  7. Oxidative Balance • Optimizing Inputs • Keeping cows healthy and in oxidative balance from a nutritional standpoint • Using antioxidants, trace minerals and amino acids to minimize free radicals • Supporting internal enzymatic reactions

  8. Reducing Excretion to the Environment • Formulating diets to Amino Acid requirements • Feeding to trace mineral requirements • Increased bioavailability and absorption through chelation
