RENAISSANCE NUTRITION, INC. Presented By
Overview 1) What is Dairyman’s Edge® PRO? 2) How it works 3) Proof it works 4) Economic benefits 5) Summation
What Is ? • Nutritional tool designed to: • Maintain & improve rumen function • Improve overall gastrointestinal efficiency • Successor to leading ProNutrient, Dairyman’s Edge® • All ingredients researched & selected for mode of action
What You Get With Live Yeast 40.0 x 109 CFU/oz. Yeast Culture 2.5 x’s DME Live Bacteria Upgraded Active Enzymes Yes + Additional Salt of Glutamic Acid Yes
How it works: Live Yeast ↑ Level of cellulolytic bacteria ↑ Total viable bacteria ↑ Microbial protein production ↑ Rate of fiber digestion ↑ VFA production ↓ Lag time of fiber digestion ↓ Lactate production Scavenges Oxygen ↓Oxidative stress Controls ruminal pH
How it works: Yeast Culture Yeast Culture Nucleic acids ↑ Total Rumen Bacteria Iso acids Vitamins Enzymes Cofactors
How it works: Bacteria Species supplied Modes of Action Enterococcus faecium Lactobacillus acidophilus Lactobacillus plantarum Lactobacillus brevis Bacillus subtilus Inhibit bad bacteria Supply enzymes/ vitamins Colonize small intestine ↑Rumen bacteria levels ↓Negative effects of stress
How it works: Enzymes • Amylase, Cellulase, Betaglucanase, Hemicellulase, Xylanase • Breakdown feedstuffs into simpler substrates • ↑Fiber & starch digestion • ↑Rate of carb assimilation • ↑Microbial protein production • ↑Available nutrients • ↓Grain passage into manure • ↓Viscosity of rumen fluid
How it works: Salt of Glutamic Acid Enhances feed palatability Transaminated into amino acids Bacteria absorb amino acids ↑ Microbial protein production
Proof it works: Production Effect of Dairyman’s Edge® PRO on Production Performance • 11 Commercial research trials • Mid-late & early lactation groups • Switchback & side x side designs • Multiple states & seasons • Control rations varied by farm • All test rations includedDairyman’s Edge® PRO
Statistical Analysis 11 Commercial Trials 2 ADFI Metabolic Trials Protocol Review & Statistical Analysis Dr. Essi Evans of Essie Evans Technical Advisory Service
Production Performance Results Mid-Late lac. Averages 150 Day Milk +3.79 lbs. % Protein +0.02 % Fat +0.05 Early lac. Averages % Protein +0.05 % Fat +0.15 Milk +5.08 lbs.
Proof it Works: Rumen Digestion Where • Atlantic Dairy and Forage Institute (ADFI) Why • Establish effect of Dairyman’s Edge®PRO on Feed digestibility How • 4 rumen fistulated cows • Test cows fed PRO • Various feedstuff samples • Sample incubation periods of 6, 12, 24 hrs.
Rumen Digestion Results Digestibility improvements = ↑ Glucose for rumen microbes
Proof it works: Whole Tract Digestibility • Research by ADFI to determine effect of PRO on: • Urinary CP & Metabolizable protein • 8 cow side x side design • 4 fed Dairyman’s Edge ®PRO • 2 week period • Last 4 days in metabolism stall
Whole Tract Digestibility Results Dairyman’s Edge ®PRO= Less protein wasted in urine; More microbial protein production
Economic Benefits • $1.23/ lb. $2,460/ ton. • $0.077/ head per day • 50 lbs./bag 40 Bags/ Skid
Summation What you can expect with Solid Results Solid Ingredients • Live Yeast/ Yeast Culture • Bacteria • Enzymes • Salt of glutamic Acid • ↑Production Performance • ↑ Nutrient Utilization • ↑ Return on investment • ↓ Nutrient Wasting
