Where facilities are available in the dairy Bloat Drench may be mixed at a ratio of 1:1 with molasses and fed at the rate of 55 mls per head twice daily in the bail.
Cows which do not drink the mixture should be drenched with Bloat Drench at the dosage listed in the section above, Drench Application.
