Feeding any cereal grain to sheep will cause an increase in the production of lactic acid within the rumen. This lactic acid is the cause of “grain poisoning”. The production of lactic acid at best, has a negative impact on the animal’s efficiency, and at worst will cause death.

Reducing the impact that this lactic acid has on the animal will improve the production outcome. The RumenWorks Sheep Enhancer Concentrate Plus Probiotic has been designed to help manage the risks that lactic acid poses.

One of the best ways to minimize the risk of lactic acid is to neutralise it after it has been produced. This neutralizing effect is known as buffering. Many naturally occurring compounds can be used to “buffer” this acid.

The RumenWorks Sheep Enhancer Concentrate Plus Probiotic contains a complex of several compounds which all have different buffering characteristics. This complex of compounds allows for a broader spectrum of buffering.

Balanced Nutritional Profile

When feeding lambs in a feedlot situation it is critical to have the diet formulated in a balanced manner. RumenWorks Sheep Enhancer Concentrate Plus Probiotic includes all the essential macro and micro minerals required to help balance the ration to maximise feed efficiency and growth rates.

How to Feed:

RumenWorks Sheep Enhancer Concentrate Plus Probiotic is designed to be included into cereal grain diets at a rate of 2.5%of 25kgs per tonne of total mixed feed.(1 bag). It is important to ensure that the concentrate is mixed thoroughly throughout the total mixed ration (TMR).
