Across 16 worldwide trials, Ecosyl treatment has shown an increase of 2.5 lbs more milk/cow/day. The 6 trials conducted in the USA resulted in 3.2 lbs more milk/cow/day.
19 beef feeding studies have proven Ecosyl provides more beef per ton. In a 10 year summary of trial work at Kansas State, Ecosyl treatment resulted in 7.7 lbs more beef per ton.
28 published trials on Ecosyl have shown treatment to increase dry matter recovery by 3.6%.
200+ trials conducted with Ecosyl have shown Ecosyl to significantly improve fermentation, providing an overall higher quality, more nutritious feed.
My aim is to increase efficiency with our existing cow numbers. For that, my forage needs to be top quality with minimal waste. It takes us 4 days to cross the 60 foot face but Ecocool keeps it nice and cool which is just what we need.
