How does Mix 30 work on low quality forage?
Low quality forage diets commonly contain an insufficient amount of protein and energy to meet the nutritional requirements of the ruminant. On these types of diets, rate of passage is slow resulting in efficient microbial crude protein synthesis (more energy is necessary for microbial maintenance). Mix 30 can supply additional forms of protein as well as additional energy to help meet rumen fermentation needs. Mix 30 is also low in sugar and starch based carbohydrates. Mix 30 contains carbohydrates that are “fiber microbe friendly”.
