Herbocal: Grass-Flavored Calcium Tablets for Cattle Nutrition

In the world of modern agriculture, the quest for optimal nutrition for livestock, particularly cattle, is an ongoing endeavor. One innovative solution that has garnered attention in recent years is Herbocal – grass-flavored calcium tablets designed specifically to address calcium deficiency in cattle while offering additional benefits such as supporting pregnancy, enhancing milk yield, and promoting faster growth in young calves.

Calcium deficiency is a common issue among cattle, particularly in regions where forage or grazing options may be limited. This deficiency can lead to various health issues, including weakened bones, reduced milk production, and reproductive problems. Herbocal aims to combat this deficiency by providing a convenient and palatable source of calcium infused with the familiar taste of grass, which appeals to the natural dietary preferences of cattle.

One of the key advantages of Herbocal is its ability to support pregnancy in cows. Calcium plays a crucial role in muscle contraction, nerve function, and blood clotting, all of which are essential processes during pregnancy and calving. By ensuring adequate calcium intake, Herbocal helps maintain the health and vitality of both the cow and her developing calf, reducing the risk of complications during gestation and birth.

Furthermore, Herbocal has been shown to enhance milk yield in lactating cows. Calcium is a fundamental nutrient for milk production, as it is a major component of milk and is involved in the contraction of smooth muscle cells in the udder. By supplementing the cow's diet with Herbocal, dairy farmers can potentially increase milk production, leading to improved profitability and sustainability in their operations.

In addition to its benefits for mature cows, Herbocal also promotes faster growth in young calves. Adequate calcium intake is essential for skeletal development and overall growth in calves, particularly during the early stages of life. By providing a concentrated source of calcium in a form that is easily consumed and absorbed by young calves, Herbocal helps ensure that they reach their full growth potential quickly and efficiently.

Overall, Herbocal represents a promising innovation in cattle nutrition, offering a convenient solution for addressing calcium deficiency while providing additional benefits for both cows and calves. By incorporating Herbocal into their feeding programs, livestock producers can enhance the health, productivity, and profitability of their herds, contributing to a more sustainable and resilient agricultural industry.

A kulustaig bull, the distinctive cattle landrace of the highlands.

Kulustaig have striking differences to other native cattle found across the Imperial Wardi claimed territory. Their aurochs ancestors were domesticated in a separate event from those found south of the Inner Seaways, and the broader cattle population kulustaig derived from may have trace bison genetics. The progenitors of this landrace were brought south across the Viper seaway by the ancestors of the contemporary Hill Tribes, and were gradually shaped into the kulustaig in adaption to the high altitudes, mild but dry summers, and cool/snowy wet seasons.

These cattle are mid-sized and stocky in build with large, broad faces, most distinguished by curly manes and 'beards' and thick, V-shaped horns. Genetically undiluted kulustaig are almost ubiquitously black, white, and/or gray, though breeding with other cattle has introduced a greater variety of coloration in contemporary stocks.

They are adapted to higher altitudes, having larger hearts and a bigger lung capacity than comparable lowland breeds, and grow thick, curly winter coats that allow for superior resistance to seasonally cooler temperatures. They can maintain condition on less food and lower-nutrition grasses than the average cattle, and are excellent instinctive foragers. This particular quality makes them attractive for crossbreeding efforts with cattle stock of the dry scrublands in the south of Imperial Wardin, though most of their other traits are highly unfavorable for hot, low altitude environments, and scrub-kulustaig hybrids with idealized traits are rare (and highly sought after as studs).

These are all-purpose cattle that can adequately fulfill roles as meat, draft, and dairy animals, though the latter role has the most importance in day to day life, and they show the most selection for milk production (though are not as high-yield as pure dairy breeds). Their meat is mostly lean and somewhat gamey, as they rely more on thick winter coats than fat stores to manage cold, and the vast majority subsist entirely on wild grasses and forage.

Most kulustaig have fairly calm, gentle temperaments, and accommodate well to human handling (it is not uncommon for cows and geldings to be passively ridden by herders otherwise traveling on foot). Their herds have strong, well defined, and stable dominance hierarchy structures, which reduces actual fighting and lends to them being more easily managed by their human herders. In most traditions, the dominant female in each herd is regarded as blessed by and belonging to the agricultural goddess Od, and will not be milked or slaughtered (this untouchable status is often maintained even if the cow's rank in the hierarchy is displaced, though traditions vary).

Bulls are almost ubiquitously given personal names by their owners (the honor often belonging to a family or clan's matriarch, who is generally considered the owner of the herd and other familial assets), while other traditions vary between just the bulls and dominant cows, personal favorites, or entire herds receiving names.

These cattle are of tremendous importance to the peoples of the highlands (particularly tribes and/or individual clans living above the river valleys, who fundamentally rely upon them for subsistence). They provide much of the meat and dairy that the core diet revolves around, and are the greatest measure of wealth within the highlands. Non-native cattle can be commonly found in parts of the highlands in the contemporary (and may be bred in to impart unique qualities to established stock, such as improved milk production or fattier meat), but kulustaig are typically prized above all the rest. These cattle are often a source of great pride for individual clans, and one of few agreed upon markers of shared identity and pride for all of the collective Hill Tribes.

Cattle raiding is a near-ubiquitous practice (both as a practical resource acquisition, and a less immediately lethal method of settling larger disputes than open warfare), and most cattle will be branded with a mark identifying their owning clan as a method of dissuading theft (often futile, particularly given cattle marked as belonging to certain wealthy clans may be especially prized). Nose rings are commonly used to assist in the handling of bulls, but have secondary protective functions that lend to their common use in even the most docile of cattle. Rings are usually blessed or have spells woven into their making as a supernatural barrier against theft, or against malicious (or at least devious) mountain spirits such as tiirgranul (who take pleasure in frightening cattle (and their herders) and are known to cause stampedes) or wildfolk (who are known to sometimes steal or curse cattle when offended, or just bored).

The word kulustaig derives from the common word 'taig'/'taigr', which refers to cattle in the contemporary languages of both the Hill Tribes and Finns, and the 'kul' root (heavily antiquated and not used in contemporary speech, most commonly recognizable in the name of the kulys plant), which has connotations of hardiness/robust qualities. The name would have derived from complimentary descriptions of the animals as 'the best and most robust of cattle'.

Dear Person who Loves Hating on Veganism,

Not all vegans are white, USian, or wealthy. In fact, those demographics aren't remotely representative of people who practice veganism.

Most vegans aren't obnoxious fucking idiots, and we hate the idiots as much as you. They're just louder, and people see them because they're obnoxious fucking idiots who won't shut the fuck up.

We're very aware of the fact that the agribusiness industry exploits and abuses workers who are disproportionately immigrants and people of color. There's a big overlap between people who are vegan and people who try to buy local produce that we can confirm is made ethically. Unfortunately, this is expensive, and see above point about most vegans not being wealthy.

It's impossible to buy fucking anything these days without it being made by exploited workers. It is possible to avoid buying products that are produced by both worker exploitation and unimaginable cruelty to animals. Harm reduction.

Many of us also try to avoid buying stuff (Palm oil, quinoa, etc) that causes massive ecological harm.

Vegan "replacements" for animal products are not necessary for being vegan.

We know that eating eggs doesn't hurt chickens, that taking wool doesn't hurt sheep, and that eating dairy doesn't hurt the animals it comes from. Those of us who aren't idiots are fine with animal products that come from animals who are well-treated.

The animals that produce eggs, wool, and dairy for mass consumption live in conditions that would be illegal to keep a pet in.

Opinions vary on killing animals for meat if they're otherwise well-treated through their lives.

Eating vegan is straight up cheaper than not as long as you don't insist on buying luxury items to replace every single animal product in your diet.

Plant-based milk is only more expensive than dairy in the USA because of the extent to which the US government subsides the dairy industry.

The amount of meat that USians eat is fucking insane, unhealthy, and ecologically unsustainable. If we enacted laws that required farmers to give their animals the space and care needed for them to be remotely healthy and kept up the current rate of meat and dairy production, something like 70% of the available arable land in the country would be going to animal farming.

Cattle farming is the largest source of methane emissions on the planet. Methane is far more potent as a greenhouse gas than CO2. Reducing cattle farming would have a huge impact on global warming.

Humans are not carnivores. We aren't even omnivores, strictly speaking. We are primarily frugivores with a limited ability to digest animal products.

There is no nutritional benefit you get from animal products that is not available from plant-based food. Often, your body will obtain the nutrients more readily and efficiently from plants than from animal products.

The only exception to this I'm aware of is vitamin B12. This is because this vitamin doesn't come directly from plants, but from the soil they grow in, and most plants are washed too thoroughly and grown in unhealthy soil. Vitamin supplements can easily replace this.

There are innumerable health benefits to plant-based diets, even if you aren't fully vegan.

Most of us have pets. Most of us support caring, sustainable animal husbandry.

Whether or not you are vegan, you should, imo, be aware of the reality of how the animals you consume are treated. What you do with that information is your own business.

We would also like to launch PETA into the fucking sun.

Sincerely,

A Vegan Who Is Fucking Tired of This Bullshit.

[acti-veg]

Meat and dairy companies are under increasing pressure over their large greenhouse gas footprints. The dairy industry is responsible for 3.4% of global human-induced emissions, a higher share than aviation.

Trade groups also give some indication in the documents of how they hope to shape conversations in Dubai. One said it will “push” the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization to host “positive livestock content” at Cop28. The Guardian recently revealed that pressure from the industry led to censorship of FAO reports on the role of cattle in increasing greenhouse gas emissions.

Animal agriculture is the largest emitter of methane, a greenhouse gas 80 times more potent than carbon dioxide when measured over a 20-year period. Scientists said that unless swift action is taken, methane from agriculture alone will push the world beyond a 1.5C (2.7F) rise in temperature above preindustrial levels that risks tipping the world into irreversible climate breakdown.

[maxknightley]

Are you vegan and if not how come

nah

I'll freely admit that industrialized animal agriculture - at least as it exists in the world today - is, quite frankly, deeply cruel. in the case of cattle in particular, it's also extraordinarily wasteful - though this is less of a concern when it comes to, say, poultry. at the same time, I think individual consumer choices have negligible impact on the meat industry as a whole; with that in mind, I rank the flavor and nutritional value of meat & seafood above whatever I might achieve by cutting them out entirely.

that being said, I tend to consider veganism kind of silly in comparison to "ovo-lacto vegetarianism." my reasoning for this is simple: have you ever stopped to really consider how fucking good eggs are? they're the perfect food. high in protein, plus a healthy but not overwhelming amount of fat. a distinctly unique yet mild flavor profile makes them a great addition to a massive variety of dishes, and that's not even touching on how useful they are for baking. they're also dirt cheap and chickens pump them out like crazy. if my life depended on it I could maybe give up meat but I absolutely could not give up meat and eggs and dairy. the very thought makes me shudder.

I did manage to cut myself down to near vegetarianism - one to three meals containing meat in a given week, usually on the lower end - for a while in college. but I pretty much did that just as a test of willpower, to see if I could commit to it. and after two years I was like "alright yeah I think that point is proven" and went back to eating Whatever (until I converted to Judaism and cut out pork, shellfish, etc). this isn't really related to the actual Merits of eating meat vs. not eating meat, I just thought it was a fun fact.

[rametarin]

Just a little rant.

Inspired by a childhood and lifetime of dealing with know-nothing vegetarians and vegans since the late 80s.

Back in the day, vegetarian and then vegan peers would say shit like, "Red meat stays in your bowels and becomes toxic poop for 7 years!" And then go on these weird pseudohistorical rants about how the human body, "isn't meant to eat meat." And then kinda dip into this vague spirituality that can kinda sound like empirical science if you don't read into or question what they're saying.

They'd go on and on about toxic chemicals in the food that big corporations and capitalism just puts there, "to save a dollar" and, that largely was not true. Really, it became a source of bad information and propaganda in the form of a peer, who is usually scared or antagonized by other peers to become outlets of bad information.

And so here we are, 2024, with a ton of vegan youtubers and tiktokkers hitting their wall and abandoning veganism because, nutritionally, it just doesn't work. The very imperative to do it is faulty and bogus, and on the other side we learn everything from our dentition to our organ setup to our physiology requires a certain amount of meat eating, and how there's so much we DON'T know about nutrition to adequately supplement it with pills.

Vegetable substitutes are "okay." But they aren't sufficient to replace meat, pound for pound, nutritionally. And it ultimately just comes down to this weird ideological fixation that vegetarians and vegans have regarding how raising beef is for the planet.

Well, we can mitigate the methane emissions, we can get nutritionally defunct corn out of their diets, we can make sure they are grazing places where it's acceptable. But there's no reason to hate on the beef and dairy industry for existing.

And one of the biggest driving factors is either 1.) The existential horror over the loss of life and the grissly way they're killed to make the food, because they find the entire thing morally repugnant. 2.) The belief in suffering itself. So, kind of buddhist/hindu-lite that won't commit to any real coherent belief system but still wants to treat suffering like it's an element on the periodic table, and ideologically treat killing animals for food like a form of suffering that's not acceptable.

Really, adjusting for the lack of nutrition from meat substitutes, about the only alternative that makes ANY god damned sense, is cloned meat. Those meat tissues that are artificially grown. But, even that won't give the quality meat we need from the sort we get from the organisms themselves;

In order to do that we'd effectively need to clone the animals' entire digestive system and its ability to synthesize the nutrition it gets. That, ultimately, is where the benefit is in eating other animals. Other animals have the ability to process plants into essential vitamins, minerals, amino acids and a whole fuckton of proteins humans just do not have the infrastructure to do, ourselves. Not just grow the animal muscle tissue in a vat. Conceivably not a bad idea, but it's just not a sufficient replacement for actual animal products.

Really the only good argument towards cloned meat in place of just raising animals for meat is that it involves less slaughter and could conceivably take up less space than grazing cattle or industrial chicken farming.

Nutritionally we need it, there's functionally no difference from an animal living and dying in captivity and not if you do it right, and the only theoretical advantage to cloned meat would be the convenience of a chemical vat to grow the meat in the absence of an animal you have to slaughter.

Refusing to eat meat because slaughtering kills animals will always be a major stumbling block that results in generations of people going into their own echo chambers and deciding that those that eat meat are barbaric. But at least now we can make refutations to these talking points more available and visible.

Health Benefits of A2 Milk : Benefits of Drinking Gir Cow Milk

Cows of Indian Breeds only can produce A2 cow milk with A2 beta casein protein, and this milk commonly known in India as Desi Cow milk. Cow Milk comes in two types of beta-casein proteins to make things easier. A1 and A2 differ by a single amino acid in  beta-casein protein. A2 milk is produced by most dairy cattle in Asia and Africa.

A2 Gir Cow Milk is rich in minerals like calcium, potassium, and phosphorus, which are essential for strong bones and teeth, better muscle performance, blood pressure regulation, tissue and cell growth, and improving good cholesterol (HDL), as well as overall body nourishment and well-being.

A2 Milk is the purest and most unadulterated form of milk. We at Bharatvarsh Nature Farm are pleased to provide it to you from Desi Cows which have been well-cared for and milked using hygienic methods. We take our hygiene extremely seriously, using sustainable and minimalistic packaging to ensure that you and your children receive natural and raw A2 milk, as nature intended.

Why A2 Cow Milk?

A2 milk is easier to digest and healthier than other cow’s milk available in the market. In cow’s milk, beta-casein makes up roughly 30% of the protein. Beta-casein comes in two varieties: A1 and A2. Cows of indian breeds produce milk that exclusively contains the A2 type of beta-casein. According to certain studies, A1 beta-casein may be hazardous and A2 beta-casein is a better choice.

Facts of A2 Milk

Rich source of protein – A2 beta casein

Best nutrition for breastfeeding mothers

Calcium and vitamin-rich

Best for weight loss

Healthy for Heart

Easy to digest

Excellent for kids

Cattle and Poultry Feed Revolutionize

Innovations that Revolutionize Animal Nutrition

By Dr. Shiva Kumar, Director Technical, Trouw Nutrition South Asia

Feed formulation and production technology is gaining in importance due to the number of future global opportunities, challenges, and threats. The global demand for animal sourced food is expected to increase by 70% in 2050 due to growth of the world population, increased income, and urbanization (Alexandratos and Bruinsma, 2012; Boland et al., 2013). The world-wide demand for animal feed is expected to increase to 1500 Mton in 2050 with the major growth occurring in Asia and Africa. In addition, animal welfare, environmental pollution minimisation, use of novel ingredients, and the use of ingredients unsuitable for human consumption in relation to efficiency of production, are major challenges faced by the feed industry (Babinszky et al., 2019).

These challenges are leading to demands for innovation in several areas related to animal nutrition including feed technology.

Innovation involves embracing cutting-edge science from all disciplines, generating insights, increasing collaboration with end-user and other partners, turning products into solutions, and accelerating progress through science-based solutions.

Innovation focus areas in animal nutrition can be broadly classified into the following categories:

Early Life Nutrition

Young animal vitality and later life performance

Specific hatchery and nursery nutrition

Health & Welfare

Supporting intestinal health

Nutritional solutions for transition periods

Nutritional solutions for specific challenges

Feed Efficiency

Feed additives for production efficiency

Reducing emissions

High performance feeds for Maximum growth and feed efficiency potential

Application Solutions

Precision feeding

Recommendations for feed and feeding

Models for quantitative nutrition and feed performance

Optimised feed value and predictable performance

Early Life Nutrition:

Influence of diet and environment are known to influence performance and health of animals with several empirical evidence. The right nutrition at the right time to both young born and maternal animals, especially during gestation, lactation and weaning, can have profound effects on the overall lifetime performance of the animal.

Diets can have an imprinting effect on expression of genes and done with epigenetics (The study of changes in gene activity that do not involve alterations to the genetic code but still get passed down to at least one successive generation) is at forefront.

Health & Welfare:

Animal Nutrition is an important part of the solution to help to contain Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR). The feed sector plays a critical role in supporting animals’ optimal health with high resilience capabilities to stressors through safe and high-quality feed (feed formulation and processing) and access to nutritional innovation. It therefore is a key factor in the well-being of all livestock, fish, and companion animals.

Adequate animal nutrition (well-balanced and well-formulated feed) combined with good hygiene practices on farms and proper housing are key in promoting animal health and welfare. A balanced diet of compound feed supported by specialty feed ingredients/additives meets the animal’s physiological requirements and maintains the balance of the gut flora. Gut health is in fact a key factor in keeping animals healthy and resilient to stressors, such as heat or pathogens.

The health and welfare problems caused by poor digestibility of proteins include wet litter in poultry resulting in breast blister and hock burn, whilst a high concentration of ammonia resulting from the decomposition of N-rich compounds in the excreta can cause serious respiratory problems in both pigs and poultry (Elling-Staats et al. 2021; Gilbert et al. 2018). Furthermore, poor quality or digestibility of proteins often acts as a predisposing factor for necrotic enteritis in meat chickens (Palliyeguru et al. 2009; Wu et al. 2014).

Animal feed must contain proteins that supply amino acids for body tissue growth, reproduction, and components of key metabolites. Proteins come from a variety of sources, mainly plant and animal origin (including insects), although proteins produced from single cell organisms such as microorganisms and algae specifically grown for feed use are becoming increasingly common.

The protein digestibility value for feed depends largely on the protein sources used in the formulation and, to a lesser extent, the age of the animal.

Feed Efficiency:

Currently the livestock industry’s focus is no longer only directed at the feed as end-product – with just wanting to increase the nutritional value of ingredients and end-products but also on production feed technology concomitant attention for product quality, mill capacity, environmental impact/emissions control, and production costs. There are well-known beneficial effects of ingredient and feed processing technologies (van der Poel and Marchal, 2019) and these include:

Producing a homogeneous mixture of diet ingredients (meal, pellets).

Decrease negative effects of antinutritional factors in ingredients (trypsin inhibitors, lectins, glucosinolates).

Increase feed safety (reduction in micro-organisms).

Increase nutrient digestibility/absorption (better feed efficiency).

Increase feed intake (less spoilage).

Find a balance between feed efficiency and animal health

Managing immunity and gut microbiome through nutrition offers enormous untapped potential for improving overall health. Pre- and pro-biotic molecules in feed, are added with focus on innate immunity. Products are already making an impact such as in reducing the need for antibiotics, with focus on reducing antimicrobial resistance. Phytogenic, or plant-based, substances with anti-bacterial properties, are increasingly being identified, combined, and added to animal feed to alter the gut microbiome, improve immunity, and protect against specific diseases. Novel or alternative animal feeds such as insect-based protein, seaweeds, single cell protein and microalgae are opening opportunities for precision nutrition.

Feeding animals according to stage of life, gut health and environmental factors offers benefits for health and welfare as well as sustainability and traceability.

Applications Solutions:

The solutions and tools to achieve precision animal nutrition includes more precise ration formulation based on nutritional value of each batch of ingredient, effective utilization of available feed resources with the aim of maximizing the animals’ response to nutrients.

Information on the raw material and feed data nutritional value through tools such as Near Infra Red Spectroscopy (NIRS) or Inline NIR can help the nutritionists in decision making. On farm and feed plant, feed formulation have been optimised with use of feed formulation software with training and experience.

Models are domains available to where nutritionists can make decision to optimise to get the best return by adapting the feeding programs as raw materials and end-product (meat) market prices change. For e.g., the Broiler Model from Trouw Nutrition

Conclusion:

Animal production and health challenges are ever evolving. Farm animal productivity is on average 30-40% below their genetic potential because of suboptimal management, nutrition and health. Feed and technology involved in the processing of ingredients and the manufacture of animal feeds is an integral part of animal production systems to provide high-quality and nutritious food.  Innovation focus areas in animal nutrition have been highlighted namely early life nutrition, heath & welfare, feed efficiency and application solutions. Accurate and fast testing will be essential to account for the variability within ingredients and the different practices used in the equipment and raw material processing, as well as in feed mills. Big data will play a pivotal role to model specific aspects of feed manufacturing and would enable the development of a model integrating characteristics of diet ingredients, recipe, and processing conditions. Collaboration between skilled data scientists, feed manufacturing technologists and nutritionists, using advanced data analytics is, pivotal for future innovations in animal nutrition.

The Growth Of A2 Milk

The Rising Demand and Future of A2 Milk In recent years, the demand for A2 milk has consistently grown significantly across various markets worldwide. The major reason behind the increasing popularity of A2 milk is the belief that it is easier to digest as compared to regular cow milk which contains both A1 and A2 beta-casein proteins. Scientific research is still ongoing regarding the exact health impacts of A1 versus A2 milk, but growing consumer preference has propelled the A2 milk industry to new heights. Growing Consumer Awareness A2 Milk is consumers are now aware of the difference between A1 and A2 milk. This increasing awareness can be attributed to health-conscious shoppers actively looking to make informed choices. Additionally, milk companies have heavily promoted the purported benefits of A2 milk. As a result, many consumers now opt for A2 milk under the belief that it is easier on digestion. Various marketing campaigns have also highlighted alternative milk options for those who may be sensitive to regular cow milk proteins. This focus on education and product differentiation in the milk aisle has driven significant demand. Rising Sales and Expanding Supply In key markets such as Australia, New Zealand, China, and parts of Europe and North America, sales of A2 milk have been steadily growing at double-digit rates year after year. In fact, industry reports suggest global A2 milk market may surpass $2 billion in revenue by 2027. Leading this growth are major brands exclusively focused on sourcing milk from cows producing only the A2 beta-casein. On the supply side, more dairy farmers are also implementing strategies to screen and selectively breed cattle to produce only A2 milk. Several new processing facilities have come online to keep up with the burgeoning demand for A2 milk and infant formula products. Prospects in Developing Markets Emerging economies present major opportunities for future expansion of the A2 milk industry. With a fast-growing middle class and shift towards nutrition-rich diets, regions such as Asia Pacific and Latin America are seeing a massive uptake of alternative milk options in recent years. India and China in particular stand out as hugely promising developing markets. As consumer awareness spreads in these densely populated nations, A2 milk companies are actively working on adapting their products and distribution to capture market share. Sustainable farming of A2 dairy cattle tailored to the climatic and economic conditions of developing countries also holds potential for a long-term supply solution.
