Feeding Directions:
Feed this product to cattle only. When used as directed, Quality CO-OP Products Formax Fly Control Gold w/Availa®4 & 0.014% Altosid® IGR (this product) will provide sufficient S-methoprene insect growth regulator to prevent the emergence of adult horn flies from manure of treated cattle. Existing adult horn flies will not be affected. Start feeding before horn flies appear and continue use until cold weather marks the end of the horn fly season. Allow free choice to cattle. Cattle should consume an average of 0.286 ounces of this product per 100 lbs. of cattle body weight per day, which is equivalent to 4 ounces per day for a 1,400 pound cow.
- Assure cattle are not starved for nutrients in this product by providing them prior to feeding this product.
- This product contains added copper. Do not feed to cattle in close proximity to sheep or other species that have a low tolerance to supplemental copper.
- Offer cattle 50 pounds of this product for every 15 head of cattle.
- Remove all other self limiting nutritional supplements while the cattle are consuming this product.
- Locate this product where cattle congregate (watering, loafing, shade areas).
- Replenish this product on a regular basis as needed.
- If intake of this product is below 0.286 ounces per 100 lbs. cattle body weight per day, increase the number of feeding locations and/or change location(s) to areas more frequented by cattle.
- If intake of this product is above 0.286 ounces per 100 lbs. cattle body weight per day, reduce the number of feeding locations and/or change location(s) to areas less frequented by cattle.
- Introduction of this product after adult horn fly infestation is established will require treatment of cattle with adulticides if elimination of the adult fly population is desired.
Warning:
Keep out of reach of children. Hazards to humans and domestic animals. Causes substantial but temporary eye injury. Do not get in eyes or on clothing. Wear protective eyewear (goggles, face shield, or safety glasses). Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and wash clothing before reuse.

Zinpro® Lifetime Performance
For more than 55 years, Zinpro® has researched and developed industry-leading trace mineral solutions that help cattle reach their full performance and profitability potential.
Birth
Reduction in Scours and Repeat Treatments
Zinpro Availa 4 is proven to strengthen calves immune systems, leading to a 34% reduction of scours and a 45% reduction of multiple treatments when compared to control.
- Scours: 34% decrease
- Multiple Treatments: 45% decrease
Colostrum IgG Concentration
Quality colostrum establishes early immune function. Adding Zinpro® Performance Minerals® into your herd's nutrition improves colostrum immunoglobulin concentration by 28% at calving, supporting increases in calf health.
- Colostrum IgG Concentration: 28% increase
Growth
Added Weaning Weight
A strong growth phase is critical to achieving their full potential. Multiple university trials have shown that supplementing cows with Zinpro Availa 4 led to 28-lb heavier calf weaning weights.
- Calf Weaning Weights: 28 lbs increase
A Stronger and Healthier Start
Healthier calves perform better. By feeding Zinpro Availa 4 through the receiving period, calves saw a 9 to 13% increase in ADG. Through a 23-trial average, we saw a 20% reduction in morbidity by feeding Zinpro Availa 4.
- Average Daily Gain: 13% increase
- Morbidity: 20% decrease
Herd Development
Reduced Foot Rot
Poor foot health in cows often leads to lower milk production and reduced calf weight gain. Studies demonstrate that pasture cattle fed Zinpro Performance Minerals show a 30% reduction in hoof disorders like foot rot.
- Hoof Disorders: 30% decrease
Earlier Heifer Puberty
Earlier heifer cycles maximize long-term reproductive success. The heifer calves of cows fed Zinpro Availa 4 during pregnancy reached puberty 19 days earlier than heifers born to cows fed inorganic minerals.
- Earlier Puberty: 19 days
Reproduction
Semen Quality
Adequate zinc, copper and manganese are essential for hormone synthesis, testicular development and semen quality, which all impact conception rates. Bulls fed Zinpro Availa 4 maintained 22% higher progressive sperm motility, even under heat stress conditions.
- Sperm Motility: 22% increase
Reproductive Success
Early conception drives lifelong performance. In multiple trials, cows supplemented with Zinpro Performance Minerals showed a 20% improvement in early conception compared with cows fed inorganic minerals at the same inclusion rates.
- Early Conception Rate: 20% increase
At every stage, optimizing trace mineral nutrition creates positive impact that contributes to lifelong performance.
That's the Zinpro Effect.
