The new star in the
calf growing program
NEW PURINA CALF GROWENA
Purina’s New Calf Program brings you extra energy in
Purina Nursing Chow, higher energy and lower fiber in
Purina Calf Startena, and an all new Purina Calf Growena.
It can help you grow herd replacements fast, breed them
early, and freshen them between 22 and 24 months—and
help you take advantage of future high milk prices.
What’s new about the program?
Based on recent findings that show heifers need in
creased protein and energy during their first six months,
Purina has developed NEW Calf Growena. This is a 16%
protein ration with an improved protein energy balance.
It's fortified with essential minerals and vitamins. And
it's coarse—the way young calves like a ration to be.
The new Purina Heifer Growing Program is better be
cause it now satisfies the growing heifer's needs for
protein at the time when she needs it most.
It’s time to start your calves on the NEW Purina Calf
Growing Program featuring New Calf Growena. Stop in
and talk to us about it. You'll find us where you see the
Checkerboard sign.
