How to make raw milk reliable for calves
Feeding infected milk is high risk for spreading diseases such as M. bovis.
The company is proud to serve the agricultural community with a wide range of products designed to promote the health and productivity of animals and crops.
At the core of the business is zeolite, a remarkable natural mineral that Blue Pacific mines and processes right here in South Waikato. Zeolite has earned its reputation as a trusted component in many agricultural solutions due to its unique properties, including its ability to bind toxins and enhance nutrient absorption.
“Our commitment to processing this mineral locally ensures that we maintain the highest quality standards while supporting our regional economy,” the company says.
“Our product range includes well-known names like OptiCalf and Optimate. Optimate is a standout herd feed supplement, featuring ACVM approval as a toxin binder.
“This product combines zeolite with probiotics and essential minerals to deliver a comprehensive nutritional solution for livestock. Designed to support peak health and performance, Optimate has become a trusted choice for farmers looking to improve the well-being of their herds.”
In addition to feed supplements, Blue Pacific Minerals also offers an innovative range of liquid fertilisers. These products are formulated to enhance crop and pasture growth while replenishing the soil with vital trace elements and minerals. With a focus on sustainability, their liquid fertilisers enable farmers to use fewer units of nitrogen, achieve precision application, and incorporate essential nutrients tailored to their specific soil needs.
This approach not only supports healthier crops but also contributes to better environmental outcomes.
One of Blue Pacific’s unique offerings is Stock Rock, a race rock specifically designed to eliminate stone bruising and provide safe, comfortable pathways for cows heading to the farm dairy. By promoting faster and safer movement, Stock Rock helps to enhance overall productivity and reduce animal stress, says the company.
“We also cater to the equine industry with a range of products developed to keep horses in peak condition, ensuring they perform at their best.
