The Best Choice for Heat Stress Management
At present, with the intensification of global climate change, the aggravation of heat stress in summer has become one of the great challenges facing the cattle industry. For animal husbandry, how to use advanced scientific knowledge and technology to cope with heat stress response, improve the production efficiency of pasture, and maximize productivity benefits.
During heat stress, animals undergo changes in hormone secretion, reduced nutrient intake, and increased maintenance requirements. Changes in intake and maintenance affect animal metabolism, resulting in decreased animal growth performance, production performance, and immunity
As a component of glucose tolerance factor, chromium can promote the binding of insulin to insulin receptors, enhance insulin function in animals, increase glucose uptake, play an important role in heat stress management, and can improve the growth, lactation and reproductive performance of ruminants.
Chromium propionate can be used as a high-quality organic chromium source for supplemental chromium in dairy cows, and its absorption efficiency is higher than that of other types of organic chromium. The chromium propionate introduced by Shukxing Company can promote the growth and development of ruminants, significantly improve milk production, feed intake corrected milk production, reproductive performance and heat stress immunity of dairy cows, improve the tissue mobilization capacity of dairy cows at all stages of late pregnancy, and reduce mastitis.

In order to obtain the best results, the feeding method of chromium propionate is recommended
(1) Feeding the cows with Cr propionate from 21 days before parturition to 35 days after parturition could increase feed intake and milk yield;
(2) feeding throughout lactation to increase milk yield;
(3) During heat stress, dairy cows had a higher demand for chromium, which could effectively alleviate the heat stress response;
(4) It can also be added with high-efficiency minerals such as alkaline copper chloride and alkaline zinc chloride to stimulate the maximum production potential of ruminants and improve production efficiency.
Note: In general, feeding cows with chromium propionate for 1-3 months is effective and should be used continuously.
Several studies have shown that the addition of chromium propionate to feed can alleviate heat stress and reduce the losses caused by heat stress to pasture.
