RUMITECH - LEADING THE WAY IN METHANE REDUCTION AND LIVESTOCK PERFORMANCE
Give your cows an A rating with our Climate range
Now including Rumitech®
On the 1st May we launched three new Climate compounds with the inclusion of Rumitech®, a methane reducing additive. What is Rumitech®?
Assured by the Carbon Trust, correct use of Rumitech will reduce methane emissions in dairy cows. Rumitech has been reducing methane and improving livestock efficiency on farm for more than 10 years, and was the first feed validated by the Carbon Trust in 2017.
Less Methane - How Is This Achieved?
Rumitech is a natural feed additive made from a blend of natural essential oils, which can easily be added to the dairy cow’s diet. It works by altering which rumen bugs thrive, resulting in less bugs which produce methane and more bugs which digest fibre, giving the animal more energy out of the feed. Introducing Rumitech to dry cows and throughout transition, has shown improvements in fertility and a reduction in metabolic disease.
IMPROVE PERFORMANCE - The benefits of feeding Rumitech Many published trial results consistently show: 1. Improved FCR and average feed efficiency improvements of 5.5% 2. Increased fat and protein corrected milk yield +4.5% (p<0.001) 3. Reduced enteric methane emissions in dairy by 17.7% per litre of milk. 4. Rumitech can improve feed conversion efficiency and margin over feed costs, and typical ROI in dairy is between 5 and 10:1 wynnstay.co.uk
