Dry Cow Range

Our Dry Cow Transformer range has been developed over time to meet the requirements of a wide range of dairy systems. Whether you are an extensive grazer or robot producer we have a product that will ensure a trouble-free transition.

With Zinpro protected minerals as standard and fixed formulation, our Dry Cow Range provides both performance and value. Protected Methionine, Isoferm and Chromium are some of the additives that can be included in this feed.

All products within the range are available in Rolls, Nuts and Meal. We can also provide bespoke solutions; tailor made for your farm.


CMC Dry Cow Transformer Range

Transformer Evo

Soya and palm-free, fibre-rich feed.
17% Crude Protein.

Evolution Nuts offer a high-fibre, sustainable option for dry cows, easing the transition to higher-starch, post-calving diets. This feed provides an easy cost-effective solution to ensure a successful calving and transition back into milk production.

With a safe level of acidification provided by Ammonium Chloride to up-regulate the cows Calcium metabolism and slightly lower protein levels, this sits nicely alongside grazing or higher protein forage supply. This feed contains a protected, high availability mineral pack from the Zinpro Availa range.
Key ingredients:

ComponentsBenefits
BarleyRapidly fermentable carbohydrate source to train the rumen for post-calving diets.
RapemealBalanced protein to support rumen microbial health and lactation transition.
Sugar Beet PulpPalatable, highly digestible fibre with slow sustained energy release.
Cane MolassesEnhances taste palatability providing fast-available energy to fuel fibre digesting microbes.
Ammonium ChlorideMetabolic acidification to reduce milk fever risk.

Transformer HyPro

Soya and Rapemeal rich feed.
28% Crude Protein.

High-protein support for immunity, udder and body condition recovery, and colostrum quality.

Hy-Pro Nuts are protein-packed with both RDP and rDUP. This supports foetal growth, feeds the rumen microbes, support colostrum quality and quantity, support udder tissue repair and maintain and recover body tissue. The Hy-Pro feed sits nicely alongside a lower protein base ration such as straw & maize. This feed contains a protected, high availability mineral pack from the Zinpro Availa range.

Key ingredients:

ComponentsBenefits
Soya BeanHigh-quality bypass protein promoting colostrum development, immune function, tissue repair and reduced tissue mobilisation.
RapemealRumen degradable protein to promote fibre digesting microbial growth.
Sugar Beet PulpPalatable, highly digestible fibre with slow sustained energy release.

Transformer FleX

Maize and Soya based feed
18% Crude Protein

Contains a unique blend of Calcium fixing and DCAD, providing the best start to lactation whilst aiding protection against metabolic disease.

Support ruminal health, energy levels, and calcium balance pre-calving.

With X-Zelit to bind calcium, Ammonium Chloride to acidify and molasses to boost palatability and energy, this feed ensures a strong start to lactation. It sits nicely alongside grazing, big bale forage and diets with moderate levels of grass silage inclusion. This product can safely be fed for the entire dry period where they are all run as one group. This feed contains a protected, high availability mineral pack from the Zinpro Availa range.

Key ingredients:

ComponentsBenefits
MaizeHigh-energy starch for milk production and body condition.
Soyabean MealHigh-quality bypass protein promoting colostrum development, immune function, tissue repair and reduced tissue mobilisation.
X-zelitBinds dietary Calcium to ensure the cows metabolism is up regulated and ready for the demands of milk production.
Ammonium ChlorideMetabolic acidification to reduce milk fever risk.

Transformer X-tra

Prioritising control of Milk Fever in increased risk diets with a higher inclusion rate of X-Zelit.

Soya, Rape Meal and Sugar Beet based feed
20% Crude Protein

A final three-week diet to prepare cows for calving and reduce metabolic risks.

Containing a blend of protein, fibre, and X-Zelit, this feed prioritises calcium mobilisation to prevent milk fever whilst providing the essential nutrients to meet the cow's needs in the last 3 weeks before calving. Suitable alongside higher risk milk fever diets with larger inclusions of high-quality silage or lush, high potassium grazing. This feed contains a protected, high availability mineral pack from the Zinpro Availa range.

Must only be fed in the last 3 weeks of pregnancy.

Key ingredients:

ComponentsBenefits
X-zelitBinds dietary Calcium to ensure the cows metabolism is up regulated and ready for the demands of milk production.
Soybean MealHigh-quality bypass protein promoting colostrum development, immune function, tissue repair and reduced tissue mobilisation.
Sugar Beet PulpSlowly fermented fibre for consistent energy and reduced ketosis risk.
WheatStarch-based energy to meet rising metabolic demands.
