            Milkivit Denkamilk, a new range of milk replacers designed to
              deliver optimal productivity and margin prospects has been launched
              by Trouw Nutrition GB. The new products are the result of collaboration
            between the company and Denkavit International.

            Last year Trouw became exclusive distributors for Denkavit milk
              replacers for the GB market and have marketed the range alongside
              their established Milkivit products. Since then, the two companies
              have worked together and combined their knowledge and technology
              to launch a new, fully comprehensive range of milk replacers for
              the UK market. 
               
              Introducing the new range, Jessica Miller, product manager at Trouw
              highlighted the improvements. “We reviewed very closely the
              needs of producers and combined this with our understanding of
              dietary requirements for calves. This new range reflects our total
              approach to calf nutrition. As an example, our new Supreme Heifer
              milk replacer focuses on the ‘enhanced early nutrition’ concept
              which balances the need for fast growth with a broader level of
              protein nutritional support. We have introduced higher levels of
              protein to the replacer which enables increased rumen development
              for future growth.”

            To support production of the new Milkivit Denkamilk Range Trouw
              has expanded their UK site at Northwich. “The new facilities
              in the UK will enable the shortest possible lead times and use
              of more home produced raw materials,” explains Jessica Miller. 
               
              Currently, Trouw specialists are discussing with producers the
              improvements and changes to the range. New bags have been introduced
              with the new Milkivit Denkamilk brand.
