It’s essential for pigs to be able to efficiently use the energy provided in the feed. This is particularly important when feed intake is compromised during periods of stress, extreme temperatures or immune challenges. KemTRACE Chromium potentiates insulin to help pigs more efficiently use glucose in their hierarchy of needs. KemTRACE Chromium is a highly bioavailable, organic source of chromium for all phases of swine production. KemTRACE Chromium, fed to millions of cattle and swine in the U.S. and around the world since its introduction in 2000, is currently registered in more than 35 countries.
