Product Highlights

Reformulations with Optigen can be used to provide:

• Available nitrogen for fiber-digesting bacteria over time
• Fermentable carbohydrate for sustaining higher milk yields
• Microbial protein synthesis as a result of more efficient ruminal function
• Effective fiber for sustaining a healthy rumen
• Control over dietary heat increment in the summer

• Is a technology that enables you to reformulate more rumen-friendly diets, which result in:

• Microbial proteins
• Fiber digestion
• Efficiency of rumen nitrogen capture

• This technology helps to provide sustained availability of ammonia in the rumen environment ensuring that the rumen bacteria have continued access to this essential food source.

- Works to create an environment for:

• Optimizing ruminal nitrogen metabolism
• Nutrient synchronization
• Microbial efficiency

Optigen:

• Is a superior non-protein nitrogen source for ruminant nutrition.
• Is a source of non-protein nitrogen.
• Is a novel ingredient that can help nutritionists make improvements in ruminant diets.
• The quality control system behind Optigen provides a consistent product from batch to batch and traceability from start to finish.
• Supports microbial synthesis resulting in the support of rumen health and fermentation.
• Allows the opportunity to formulate cheaper feed ingredients and lower the cost of rations.
• Sustained release of non-protein nitrogen
• Similar nitrogen release rate to that of soybean meal
• Unique ingredient for ruminants
• Works to create an environment for optimizing ruminal nitrogen metabolism, nutrient synchronization and microbial efficiency.
• Is designed to provide a safe, concentrated source of ruminally degradable protein activity of ruminal bacteria populations.
