Westside Enterprises, in collaboration with Virbac, proudly hosted the 𝐒𝐲𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 & 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐲 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐚𝐲 on 11 March 2026.

As the livestock industry continues to evolve, so too must our nutritional strategies. This event moved beyond the traditional “product vs. product” debate and focused instead on a holistic approach to Optimising Herd Performance. Discussions explored the powerful synergy between daily foundational nutrition through Selko IntelliBond hydroxy trace minerals and strategic injectable interventions with Multimin — demonstrating how the right balance of both can support stronger, healthier, and more productive herds.

We were privileged to hear valuable insights from an outstanding panel of industry experts:
* Dr John Arthington
* Dr Davi Brito De Araujo
* Prof Andy Hentzen
* Dr Riaan Putter
* Adéle Rothmann

Thank you to everyone who joined us for a day of knowledge sharing, collaboration, and forward-thinking solutions for the future of livestock nutrition.

Most livestock perform at about 40% below their genetic potential due to suboptimal environmental conditions, including housing, stocking density, nutrition program, climate, and disease pressure.

Those conditions are often associated with inflammatory processes, reduced nutrient absorption, and impaired gut barrier function that all divert nutrients away from growth. There is a need for natural ways to help the animal reach its genetic potential.

5 tips for choosing a good selenium-enriched yeast:

✅ Light colour: Indicates purity and controlled production.

✅ Certificate of Analysis: Ensures batch-to-batch consistency and guaranteed product composition (like Selko Optimin Selenium).

✅ Multiple Se forms: Opt for a Se source with a combination of several organice Se forms e.g. selenomethionine & selenocysteine for better bioavailability.

✅ High SeMet content: Look for Se-enriched yeaste with over 98% organic selenium for optimal absorption.

✅ Strong transfer rate: Focus on the Se transfer rate, not just the total concentration, to estimate how well animals absorb it from the diet.
