DairyCare N Z

DairyCare NZ is an Auckland based company that has for many years been creating and selling healthcare products, mainly for New Zealand dairy cows. Our business helps dairy farmers to keep animals healthy, reduce antibiotic use and costs, and assist in increasing farm profitability. Most of our products were originally based on the multiple curative claims and uses of the preserved inner flesh of the Aloe Vera plant. Writings about what healing and health benefits Aloe Vera could achieve, used both as a tonic and applied topically to skin problems, have been around for more than 30 years and Aloe Vera based products have been strongly praised by veterinarians for use on animals in a number of countries. About fifteen years ago DairyCare NZ got together with Dr. Peter Molan of Waikato University, who had researched the anti-bacterial and healing properties in what is now a distinctly New Zealand product – that of Manuka Honey. Tests and now long term use by farmers, have shown that combining Aloe Vera and Manuka Honey in our patented Cow and Calf Formula, creates a uniquely New Zealand healthcare product, where each element contributes specific properties and additional benefits which are not available in either alone. An added, but initially unexpected benefit, has been the finding by Formula using farmers that their cows actually produce considerably more milk, as well as being all round healthier. They have fewer vet bills and their milk dockets show increased quantities of milk supplied. Thus, these farmers see a reduction in Farm Working Expenses and added profitability for the farm business. see our testimonials for more Laboratory testing conducted through AgResearch has shown that Cow & Calf Formula stimulates immune cells and has antibacterial activity, without the potency or side effects of antibiotics. At a time when antibiotic resistance is becoming a worldwide concern, finding potential alternatives makes good sense.
