THE (lincomycin)
HEAVYWEIGHT
The feed additive for the treatment and control of bloody
scours (swine dysentery) from birth to market.
A number of feed addit.ves for bloody scours are on the market:
But until today, few could offer such high performance and so few
feeding restrictions as Lincomix.
On-farm trials have demonstrated the efficacy of Lincomix. By
controlling bloody scours, Lincomix has proven its. superior
performance in maintaining rate of gain and feed efficiency while
reducing death losses.
And Lincomix can be fed in any ration, from starter to finishing
just withdraw six days prior to slaughter. It’s available in both
complete feeds and supplements for on-farm mixing.
Lincomix-THE HEAVYWEIGHT feed additive for the
treatment and control of bloody scours.
Talk to us today about getting Lincomix in your hog rations!
Look for lincomycin on the feed tag.
