Lysine supplement expected to give better ROI on nutrients fed to cattle
ADM, a global leader in animal nutrition, has launched NutriPass L, an encapsulated lysine supplement that is rumen-stable and intestinally available to cows.
Brad Dalke, Vice President, ADM Animal Nutrition said that through effective encapsulation, NutriPass L supplies a consistent and stable supply of metabolizable lysine for lactating cows and growing cattle. This gives producers the advantage of improved return on investment on the nutrients fed. Lysine is an essential amino acid that must be provided through feedstuffs, since cows do not produce it naturally.
Encapsulating lysine makes it possible for producers to supply a balanced, cost-effective diet, through the reduction of higher cost protein ingredients in the ration. NutriPass L has been shown to meet or exceed net delivery of metabolizable lysine when evaluated against comparable products.
The supplement supports optimal milk production, animal growth and creates opportunities for nutritionists to limit nutrient wastage in rations.
It can be mixed with a wide variety of feed ingredients and forages. This is the latest addition to ADM’s expansive portfolio of livestock nutrition-based technologies and feed solutions.
