Rumix 100g X 4

COMPOSITION: Sodium propionate 15 % m/m, molasses products 47,5 % m/m.

• Aims at restoring normal ruminal function.
• Re-establishing ruminal motility.
• Regulating digestion.
• Improving appetite and promoting feed conversion following tick-borne gallsickness, redwater, mastitis, footrot and other infections, digestive disturbances, stress, transport, change of food, low-grade roughage, poisonous plants, and recurring bloat.
• Rumix should also be employed as an appetite stimulator in cattle and sheep, where animals are fed on low-grade roughage, winter grazing, and with sudden changes of food, such as entering feedlots or translocations.

Ruminants are particularly prone to ruminal disturbances varying from suboptimal motility to total atony following stress, sudden change of food, low-grade roughage, poisonous plants or metabolic disturbances. With reduced ruminal activity (motility) the pH of the rumen rises as a result of salivary buffering. (Normal ruminal activity requires a pH of 6,6 to 7,0, i.e. slightly acidic.) An increased pH interferes with fermentation and with the production of volatile fatty acids. An insignificant digestive disturbance may initiate a vicious cycle leading to prolonged convalescence or even death. Sodium propionate is converted to propionic acid, a naturally occurring volatile fatty acid which acidifies the rumen and provides an immediate source of energy. Molasses and yeast products supply the substrate for the resumption of normal fermentation.
