RumAssist™

RumAssist is designed to be fed to cattle that are in stressful situations, whether this involves a change in surroundings, a new social setting or a new diet. This product can help fight challenges associated with placing cattle on feed at weaning and moving up to a finishing diet by helping to create a more stable rumen environment.

About the Product

RumAssist is a blend of yeasts which helps inhibit more acid-utilizing bacteria. This product helps to provide the rumen and microbial population with an opportunity to adapt to their new environment, thereby aiding animal success.

RumAssist helps to support a more balanced rumen environment, which enables weaned calves to adapt better to mixed rations. It can also help to reduce the chance of ruminal acidosis in feedlot cattle that are transitioning to a complete finishing diet. When added to the diet, this product creates more acetate and propionate while decreasing lactic acid which thereby increases intake, creating a more stable rumen pH and giving the animal more microbial protein. RumAssist has been carefully designed to help modify the rumen.
