Management Consistencies to Minimize Sub acute Rumen Acidosis: A Herd Probiotic

Rumen Acidosis in Small Ruminants and Its Therapeutic Management

Forty two small ruminants, 26 (61.90%) sheep and 16 (38.10%) goats were treated for rumen acidosis. 19 (45.24%), 12 (28.57%), 6 (14.29%) and 5 (11.90%) animals had eaten apple, cooked rice (wazwan left over) turnip and chapatti respectively and manifested clinical form of ruminal acidosis with, 2.86%; (n=18) as mild (Rumen fluid pH=6.32 ±0.09316), 38.09%;(n=16)moderate (Rumen fluid pH=5.71 ±0.0...

Management Considerations to Minimize Reproductive Disease in the Beef Herd

Many conditions affect the reproductive performance of the beef herd, including nutrition, bull fertility, and environmental stresses. Perhaps none have the potential to create more significant losses than infectious diseases. Infectious diseases affecting reproduction can create losses throughout the entire reproductive cycle by decreasing ovulation rates, fertilization rates, embryonic surviv...

Rumen Acidosis in Dairy Cattle: Bunk Management Considerations

Despite diet formulation for chemical (15) and physically-effective fiber (12) minimums, nonstructural carbohydrate (NSC) and starch maximums (16), and the use of total mixed rations (TMR), some degree of SARA may be inevitable in high-producing dairy herds because total chewing and rumination times per kg of rumen-fermentable organic matter (RFOM) intake declines as RFOM intake increases (Figu...
