Acid Buf Rumen Buffer

Acid Buf™ is a highly efficient rumen buffer made from calcareous marine algae.

Acid Buf has a unique marine mineral matrix that consumes excess acid in the rumen and regulates long term optimum pH in the rumen.

Its natural honeycomb structure breaks down slowly in the rumen providing twice the buffering capacity of sodium bicarbonate, even when fed at much lower concentrations.

Acid Buf is a slow-release rumen conditioner that reduces the time below pH 5.5 to less than 1 hour and maintains a higher daily (24hour) mean pH.

Acid Buf is the leading rumen buffer and a 100% natural animal feed ingredient.

Acid Buf’s long-lasting buffering ensures a stabilised rumen pH for optimal fibre digestion

Key Features

Increases fibre digestion, which raises milk solids production
Increases butterfat and milk protein
Long-term pH optimisation in the rumen by maximising the time the rumen spent between pH 5.8 - 6.2
Optimises healthy rumen functioning, reducing subclinical rumen acidosis (SARA) and acute acidosis
Increasing productivity per kg/dry matter intake
Highly bioavailable source of calcium and magnesium
Cost-effective and supported by independent peer-reviewed research

Feeding Rate

80 - 100g/head/day

Handling and Storage

Store in secure cool dry conditions. Care should be taken to ensure correct amounts are weighed and that the straight material is kept away from animal contact.

Vistacell Yeast Rumen Enhancer

Vistacell™ acts as a probiotic to improve rumen and gut health by boosting the growth of beneficial rumen bacteria and improving rumen fermentation.

By removing oxygen and competing for sugars in the rumen, Vistacell improves the environment for fibre digesting and lactate utilising microbes, allowing them to thrive and grow. The result is an increase in microbial protein production, and optimised rumen pH, and improved fibre digestion. All factors are essential in maximising the efficiency of high performing dairy cows.

Vistacell™ ensures the delivery of the highest dose rate of live yeast for ruminants on the market (60 billion CFU/head/day) compared with other live yeasts.

The higher the live yeast dose rate, the greater the response

Key Features

Increase milk yield by up to 2 litres/ cow/day
Increase LWG for beef herds
Improve feed efficiency and increased dry matter intake
Reduce the risk of acidosis
Improve rumination and cud-chewing
Improve dung consistency
Less diarrhoea
Cows/cattle look more content
