MYCOSORB
Is a patented yeast cell wall extract for inclusion in the daily feed. It is rich in glucens that are known to bind mycotoxins, they have a vast surface area, so not much is needed. The product is heat stable and natural and has a broad spectrum action over a range of mycotoxins.
Where mycotoxins have been identified, feeding Mycosorb Farm Pack showed an average response of 1.2 litres per day.
Mycosorb farm pack is £292.50 per 250 kilos - Ring us for more information.
YEASTS
A product that is proving to be valuable on many dairy and beef farms this year is Yeast. Yeast is designed to maintain a healthy rumen, aid fibre digestion, increase milk yields, improve dry matter intakes, improve liveweight gains and food conversions. This year in particular live yeast is helping to raise overall rumen PH and increase fibre-digesting bacteria with many of the silages that don't appear to be performing as well as their analysis suggest. Less than ¼ of a litre would cover the cost of 30 - 50 grams of Yeast per day plus all the additional benefits.
Certainly a product that needs considering - if you need more information please phone the office or your usual agent.
