By correcting micronutrient imbalances farmers can solve the nagging problems of improving animal reproduction performance.
Sustained demand through three decades of Nutrimin drench for ruminants – an Agmin product – demonstrates there are always deficiencies in one or more micronutrients in the pasture feed.

Initial trials with Nutrimin drench (containing trace elements in highly absorbable and rapid metabolisable amino acid chelated form) provided farmers the necessary observable effects in animal health longevity, increased milk and wool production capacity, and improved measurable weight gains.
By correcting micronutrient imbalances farmers can solve the nagging problems of improving animal reproduction performance.
At the time when Nutrimin drench was formulated, and trialled, it was not planned to be the end of all solutions to the mineral nutrient deficiency problems, but rather to serve as a proof of micronutrient deficiencies in ruminant animals.
Unfortunately, when something such as Nutrimin (which ‘works’) becomes a habit and closes the door to the idea the solution to the correction of nutritional deficiencies for ruminant should start with the determination of trace element deficiencies in the pasture, and corrected by a prescription formulated foliar spray.
Or if standard formulation is used it should contain levels of micronutrients which partially or fully correct deficiencies but does not increase the already sufficient nutrients into excess.
Agmin formulated six different variations of this pasture spray.
Most of the micronutrient deficiencies in pastures result in reduced photosynthesis, showing chlorotic symptoms, stunted growth and inferior nutritional feed for sheep and cattle.
Nutrimin Pasture Spray is designed to produce healthy pastures while supplying trace elements to livestock as nature intended it – via your pasture.

Benefits of using Nutrimin Pasture Spray include:
Increased nitrogen fixation by legumes (cobalt-B12 vitamin enhances the cells microbial cell division producing root nodules in legumes).
Increased decomposition of organic matter and release locked-up nutrients in available form (cobolt-B12 vitamins).
Boron (B) deficiency results in internode shortening, chlorosis of leaves.
Copper (Cu) deficiency occurs in soils with high organic matter resulting in distortion of yellowing of leaves.
Manganese (Mn) deficiency is characterised by interveinal yellow (chlorosis).
Zinc (Zn) aids maintenance of photosynthesis, drives growth hormone production, starch formation and seed maturation.
Iron (Fe) deficiency impacts upon photosynthesis, chlorophyll fixation, respiration, and nitrogen fixation.
Molybdenum (Mo) deficiency results in reduced nitrogen fixation and nitrogen assimilation.
