Ngahiwi Supplementary CMR is formulated for Dairy Farmers to either fortify whole milk or as a stand-alone powder for colostrum-proven calves from week 3 onwards.
Ngahiwi Supplementary CMR combines well-balanced milk-protein & fat-level milk powders with probiotics, prebiotics, vitamin & mineral premix and a coccidiostat.*
Ngahiwi Supplementary CMR is a non-curding milk powder and is only recommended as a stand-alone powder from 14 days of age, where a calf has had both adequate colostrum, vat milk or a curding CMR like Ngahiwi Premium.
