Talking livestock microbial tech with Terragen
Description
The use of microorganisms to improve the health and production of animals is an emerging field within the livestock industry.
In this episode, we look at the impact microbial technology and products are having in the dairy industry.
We’re joined by vet and ruminant nutritionist Dr Paul Cusack who explains how new technological advances will improve the way researchers are able to study microbes, and the impact different feed additives have on them.
We speak to Tom Bayes from Terragen, a company producing a probiotic supplement for dairy cows and calves to increase feed efficiency and milk production.
And we also talk to South Australian dairy farmer Jo Jones, who has been using Terragen’s product MYLO and has seen a reduction in herd sickness and improvement in milk quality, especially around calving.
