Description
While perfection may not be possible, continuous improvement always is. When it comes to dairy cows, a key area to focus on is the fiber component of their diets, as a significant portion of it remains indigestible. In this episode, I talk with Dr. Elias Bungenstab, who enlightens us on various strategies to enhance fiber digestibility, including the utilization of NIR technologies; enzymes for fiber degradation, their positive impacts and viability; and effective strategies to improve overall fiber digestibility. Additionally, we delve into the use of live yeast to maintain a stable pH and optimize rumen function, thus further improving fiber digestibility and overall cow performance.“I love ruminants because they can always do things that no other organism can.’’ – Dr. Elias BungenstabWhat you’ll learn:(00:00) Highlight(01:35) Introduction(04:53) NIR technologies for animal nutrition (08:37) Enzymes in dairy nutrition (12:31) Maximizing fiber digestibility (20:44) Yeast benefits in fiber digestibility (27:30) Effects of enzymes and yeasts on performance (37:17) The final questionsMeet the guest: Dr. Elias BungenstabExperience: Current: Global Technical Manager for Ruminants at AB VistaPast: Technical Services Manager – Beef at Van Beek Natural ScienceBackground: Ph.D., Ruminant Nutrition (Auburn University)M.Sc., Feedlot Management (Texas A&M University)Connect with the guest!?????? ?? ????? ????????, ??????? ?? ??? ????? ????????.The Dairy Podcast Show is trusted and supported by innovative companies like:- AB Vista- Protekta- DSM- Diamond V- ICC- Phibro- Berg + Schmidt- Evonik- Adisseo- smaXtec
