66: Inconsistent Herd Performance? Take A Closer Look at Fumonisin
from Ruminate This | Agrarian Solutions · host Scott Zehr
Fumonisin is one of the most overlooked mycotoxins in dairy production, and its impact goes beyond immune suppression. In this episode, Dr. Larry Roth explains how fumonisin disrupts cell-to-cell communication in the gut (often called quorum sensing), which plays a critical role in gut integrity, immune function, liver health, and respiratory resilience. Learn why this mycotoxin is increasingly more common, why many binders fall short, and how targeted testing and smarter mitigation can help explain inconsistent herd performance.🎧 Listen now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or your favorite podcast platform 💬 Have thoughts or a story to share?
