Dairy cattle ruminant nutrition

RUMINANT PERFORMANCE

Ruminant Nutrition Programs

Science-backed nutrition programs designed to support rumen function, transition cow health, milk yield, and reproductive efficiency in dairy and beef cattle operations.

Supporting the Rumen, Driving Performance

Ruminant productivity is fundamentally linked to rumen health. ViaFeed's ruminant programs are built around rumen buffer technology, bypass nutrient delivery, and targeted mineral supplementation to keep the rumen environment stable and productive.

From transition cow management to peak lactation support, our technical solutions are designed to reduce metabolic disorders, improve feed efficiency, and extend productive life in your herd.

01

The Challenge

High-producing dairy cows face significant metabolic stress during transition, while beef operations struggle with inconsistent growth rates and feed conversion in varying forage quality conditions.

02

Our Approach

We combine rumen buffer blends, bypass fat and protein sources, and chelated mineral programs to address the specific physiological demands of each production stage — from dry cow to peak lactation and finishing.

Key Program Features

01

Rumen Buffer Blends

Sodium bicarbonate and magnesium oxide-based buffer systems to stabilize rumen pH and prevent subacute acidosis.

02

Transition Cow Support

Anionic salt programs and targeted vitamin E/selenium supplementation to reduce periparturient metabolic disorders.

03

Milk Yield Optimization

Bypass fat and rumen-protected amino acid programs to sustain energy balance and milk protein in high-producing cows.

04

Reproductive Performance

Trace mineral and antioxidant programs to support conception rates, embryo survival, and overall reproductive efficiency.

Improve herd performance from the rumen up.
