Dr. Alfonso Lago: Feeding Native, Rumen Microbes Improved Milk Yield, Solids, and Feed Efficiency (Sponsored Podcast)

Dr. Alfonso Lago, President and Chief Science Officer at the contract research organization, DairyExperts (Tulare, CA), summarizes the results of a trial he conducted on behalf of Native Microbials. The 40-week week study tested the effect of two microbial products consisting of microorganisms sourced from the rumen on the production of Holstein dairy cows. The study found that microbial feed supplementation improved economically important outcomes such as milk yield, solids, and feed efficiency. The study has been published by the Journal of Animal Science. This episode is sponsored by Native Microbials.
