What are probiotics?
Donaghys probiotics are microbiological preparations designed to promote beneficial rumen microbes and to stabilise gut conditions. Some definitions of probiotics (motivated largely by recent interest in probiotics for humans) emphasise live microorganisms. The original definition and some definitions reflective of modern research recognise the probiotic value of non-live microorganisms.
Donaghys have shown the effectiveness of specifically cell burst probiotic organisms for effect on ruminant livestock. The intelligent definitions recognise that some of the most effective probiotic microorganisms in agriculture (and in some cases, human health) do not operate by inoculating the gut and components of probiotic microorganisms show probiotic activity. Donaghys probiotic production releases the full potential of those components.
Don't let a poor performing rumen interrupt productivity, livestock condition or feed utilisation
The rumen micro-organisms are the key to efficient digestion. It is through the rumen that the animal starts deriving energy, protein and mineral nutrition from pasture and feed. The process is dominated by micro-organisms. It is the beneficial rumen micro-organisms targeted by Donaghys probiotics that lead to improved productivity and performance.
