In lactating dairy cows, subclinical acidosis can result in economic losses attributed to low milk fat, decreased milk production, decreased reproductive performance and increased risk of disorders caused by the synthesis of secondary metabolites.
Due to its physical nature and mineral composition, Lithobuff is an ideal buffer substance that can act on ruminal PH variations, feed efficiency and ultimately the production level of animals with high potential.
It helps to maintain ruminal pH and it not only have the advantage of having a longer duration of action in the rumen, but it is also used at 50% of the recommended dose for sodium bicarbonate. The intake of lithothamnion compared to sodium bicarbonate has a significant effect on milk production and the production of useful material.
