Convenient ready-to-use liquid iodine supplement
Prevention and treatment of iodine deficiency
Use by addition to the drinking water, oral drenching (daily or strategic), addition to supplementary feed or foliar application (preferably with a suitable sticking agent such as Widespread™ at 50mL per 100 litres water)
Application
Water treatment; Administer to adult cattle through the water supply at a rate of 0.1-0.8ml per head/day. Adult sheep require 10-40ml per 1000 sheep/day. The higher rates are required when animals are being fed on Brassica crops.
Oral drenching; Drench ewes with 4-5ml/ewe 8 weeks and again 4 weeks pre-lamb. Drench other livestock at a dose rate recommended by your animal health adviser. For dairy cows that are drenched daily during milking, use the rates described as for water treatment above
Addition to supplementary feed; Mix thoroughly into supplementary feed to supply adult cattle with 0.1-0.8ml per head/day, and adult sheep with 10-40ml per 1000 sheep/day, unless advised by your animal health adviser. The higher rates are required when animals are being fed on Brassica crops
Foliar application; Spray pasture to be grazed or conserved with 1.25 litres Stock Iodine™ per hectare, up to 1-2 weeks pre-grazing. For Brassica crops that are to be grazed, spray with 2.5 litres Stock Iodine™ per hectare. A sticker such as Widespread™ can be used at 50mL per 100 litres of water.
Capability and precautions
Stock Iodine™ is water-soluble so can be mixed with most other water-soluble animal health products. However all iodine products have the tendency to leach elemental iodine as a gas or liquid, so the solution and/or the container may turn a brown colour.
Storage and handling
Store in the original container and close container after use. Store in a clean dry covered facility out of direct sunlight.
Shelf life
