| As the role of amino acids in dairy nutrition becomes more apparent, more dairy rations are balanced to optimize amino acid levels. MEGALAC PLUS provides an effective source of methionine – in a proven bypass form – to deliver this important amino acid directly to the small intestine, where it can be absorbed for maximum utilization. Benefits include: - Increased Milk Components
Nearly 80 percent of milk is produced under pricing systems compensating producers for higher levels of protein. The addition of methionine to the diet, especially in a bypass form, provides cows with readily-available amino acids to improve milk protein production. - Improved Feed Efficiency
Rations effectively balanced for proper amino acid levels are predominantly lower in crude protein. That means dairy producers can spend less money on protein supplements, and cows can better utilize nitrogen to keep it from entering the environment. It all adds up to getting more milk from each pound of feed. |  |
