What research is available to support the performance of the OmniGen family of products?
The OmniGen Research Index is a collection of over 110 published university research and field studies. The research shows that continual feeding of OmniGen helps support a healthy immune system, which may lead to fewer health events, lower somatic cell counts and fewer cases of mastitis and metritis. With healthy immune function, dairy cattle are better prepared for stressors, reducing the need for antibiotics and other costly treatments, helping cows achieve their full potential while optimizing production costs and overhead. This research is available in Research Index Volume 4, which can be found in the resources section of the website here.
What are the primary benefits of a healthy immune system in dairy cattle?
Increased milk production, better health and improved reproductive performance are among the primary benefits of feeding OmniGen. A recent study by the University of Florida showed a 2.5:1* return on investment (ROI) when feeding OmniGen nutritional specialty product. This study included an economic analysis and was presented at the American Dairy Science Association Annual Meeting in June 2020. This study showed a benefit of $79 per cow minus a feed cost of $32, which resulted in an estimated 2.5:1* ROI, due to increased milk production, better health and improved reproductive performance.
