Modern day ruminant animals are subject to vastly differing conditions in terms of feed type and quality and pressure on rumen microbes than the conditions these animals and their microbes evolved under.  This disparity means that optimal conditions for a healthy population of rumen microbes can frequently be compromised, which in turn can have a negative effect on feed utilisation and thus animal productivity.

Donaghys probiotic formulations are designed to ensure rumen conditions and thus feed utilisation, are not compromised. This in turn has very positive effects on animal productivity.
