The product is designed to correct the diets of replacement heifers aged 2–4 months and older with respect to mineral elements and vitamins, as well as to supply them with common salt. It serves as an effective supplementary source of minerals and vitamins when standard compound feeds or premixes are used in young stock diets, helping to compensate individual characteristics and body weight differences under group housing conditions. The lick can also be used in cases of clinically evident and latent forms of mineral and vitamin deficiencies.
