The future of milk production is lighter.

Posilac® 500 mg helps your herd produce more from less — better margins for you, less methane for the planet.

≈9.9lb/day

more milk per cow vs. control

First-lactation cows vs. untreated control, averaged over a 238-day treatment period. Multiparous cows produced 12.47 lb more per day. Across the study herd (35% first-lactation, 65% multiparous) that adds up to 2,755 lb more milk per cow over the treatment period, calculated from the published trial averages.¹

−7.3%methane

emissions per unit of milk produced

Modelled reduction per unit of milk produced, alongside 8.1% less total feed and 6.8% less manure.²
