In young calves, the milk-feeding phase gradually prepares the animal to valorise milk feed, the first plant-based fractions and the starter concentrate.
In milk-feeding formulas incorporating plant-based raw materials, this balance must be preserved without compromising digestive tolerance or the ease of use of the milk feed.
REALDYME® helps support this phase with its standardised fermentable plant matrix, designed for inclusion at a low dose in young calf programmes.
REALDYME® thus acts as an additional lever in milk replacers and young calf programmes, particularly where formulas include plant-based fractions or call for better consistency of use, dispersion and feed tolerance.
LIQUID-PHASE INTEGRATION
In a milk replacer, a raw material must meet requirements specific to liquid feeding: disperse easily, remain evenly suspended throughout feeding, and not compromise the texture or palatability of the milk feed.
USE IN MILK FEED
A consistent structure that promotes more even resuspension in the milk replacer.
Progressive fermentability
A progressive fermentability, which supports the development of fermentative function without compromising the young calf's digestive tolerance.
A FIBRE DESIGNED FOR EASE OF USE
This combination provides a plant fibre designed to fit into young calf programmes without compromising ease of use in the milk feed. Recommended inclusion rate: 1%.
