Alleviate® is your secret to show ring success

One of the newest show animal products unveiled by Purina® is also one of the most valuable. It can help make your show animals healthier and more efficient.

Purina High Octane® Alleviate® is a feed supplement made for sheep, goats, pigs and cattle that are being shown competitively either at the county, state or national level. Alleviate is formulated to support optimal pH in the digestive system, protecting your animals from bloat and loose stools. It also helps them maintain level consumption of the feedstuffs. This product is very palatable and especially beneficial during stressful times.

Alleviate is very flexible and is recommended to be fed twice a day. In situations where animals need more, that can also be done and “fed as a snack” throughout the day. Alleviate has no added copper so it is safe for show lambs and works extremely well on livestock that are being hauled to shows and under a strict exercise regimen.

The crop is off to an excellent start! For that reason, the Key Grain division is already preparing for the coming harvest.

Fall plans begin with empty or nearly empty facilities. As a result, most of our summer work relates to getting those facilities empty and prepped for the next crop cycle.
