HP 100 – The smart alternative to dairy proteins in CMR
Rising feed costs? Market uncertainty?
Global demand for dairy proteins is skyrocketing – leaving calf milk replacer (CMR) formulators and farmers with higher feed costs and shrinking margins. Traditionally, soy protein was not considered an option for calves due to anti-nutritional factors (ANFs) and poor digestibility. But times have changed.
A proven solution you can trust
With over 30 years of expertise in young animal nutrition, Hamlet Protein has developed HP 100.
It is an enzyme-treated soy protein designed specifically for calves. By removing ANFs, HP 100 delivers consistent performance, improved gut health, and reliable growth. Backed by university trials, HP 100:
- Matches growth rates of dairy-only CMR.
- Outperforms dairy by 10% in the critical post-weaning phase.
- Beats other plant proteins, which lagged 8% behind at weaning.
- Cuts fecal nitrogen by 20%, supporting both gut health and sustainability.
- Reduces costs, being up to 4 times cheaper than dairy proteins.
Figure 1: Average daily gain (ADG, g) from day 0–30, 30–75, 0–75, 75–135, and 0–135 after birth of calves fed a calf milk replacer (CMR) based on skimmed milk powder (SMP), or CMRs where 30% of SMP protein was replaced by HP 100 (HP 100), hydrolyzed wheat gluten (HWG), or micronized soybean meal (µSBM). A,B indicates a significant difference lower than P<0.01 and a,b indicates significant difference lower than P<0.05.
Why choose HP 100?
✔ Less volatility: Protection against fluctuating dairy prices.
✔ Feed cost savings: Control your CMR formulation cost without compromise.
✔ Better calf performance: Proven growth and gut health results.
✔ Environmental benefits: Reduced nitrogen emissions and responsibly sourced soy.
