Key Benefits

The #1 choice in stocker implants.2

REVALOR-G is used in more stocker cattle than any other brand. In fact, it leads the next closest implant brand by a more than 2-to-1 margin. Here’s why.

REVALOR-G delivers added weight gain for a proven ROI.

Cattle implanted with REVALOR-G while on pasture gain an average of an extra 23 lbs. and maintain the added weight during the finishing period.3

It’s dosed for stockers’ maturity levels.

As animals mature, increased doses in implants are needed to make implants more effective. REVALOR-G matches the hormone level with the production setting to achieve maximum productivity.

Proven in a wide variety of grazing periods and forage conditions.

In grazing studies of a variety of grazing periods and forage quality, REVALOR G treated cattle gained an additional 23 pounds over the non-implanted control cattle.

Other Key Benefits

  • Doesn’t affect subsequent feedlot performance.
  • Helps cattle gain even on low-nutrition, dormant winter pasture.4
