Dairy farmers continue to look for ways of improving feed efficiency to offset the impact of volatile milk prices. In response, Lallemand Animal Nutrition has launched a new mini website www.levucellsc-fibre.info which focuses on fiber digestibility to help dairy farmers, nutritionists, veterinarians and distributors understand ways of improving feed and forage utilisation. This new tool summarises the latest scientific results obtained with the rumen specific live yeast, Levucell® SC I 1077 and in particular its effect on improving fiber digestibility. Fiber can limit the ‘milk potential’ of the diet, however the live yeast allows producers to increase the energy available to the animal.
To promote the launch of this new website, Lallemand is holding a competition on-line called ‘Stimulate with Levucell SC’ in which 2 people can win a new iPad !
