Rumen-protected amino acids: Not just for milk production
Published:November 11, 2016
Summary
Rumen-protected lysine (Lys) and methionine (Met) are becoming common fixtures in dairy rations, particularly in those where milk is sold not only for volume, but also for the component values.
Research and practice have shown repeatedly that improving the Lys and Met profiles in the diet (where increased dietary levels of these limiting amino acids are available to the small intestine) result...
Fats are not attacked by rumen microbes. Rumen protected fats like calcium soaps can be used to quote the beads of amino acids. I think this will work.
