Product catalog summary
Product Overview: Mega-Energy is a rumen-protected fat supplement designed to enhance milk production and milk solids in lactating dairy cows. It is also suitable for other ruminants like beef cattle, sheep, and goats.
Feeding Recommendations: The typical feeding rates are 300-600 g/head/day for lactating dairy cows, 125 g/head/day for dry cows, 150-300 g/head/day for beef cattle, and 40-80 g/head/day for sheep and goats. It should be mixed with other diet ingredients and can be part of a total mixed ration, blend, or compound pellet.
Product Characteristics: Mega-Energy is available in dry, free-flowing prills, beige to dark brown in color, and packaged in 25 kg bags or mini-bulk bags. It provides a concentrated energy source from rumen-protected fat, avoiding disruption to fiber digestion and not contributing to rumen acid load.
Benefits: The supplement increases energy intake without increasing acidosis risk, supports fertility through increased progesterone production, and is suitable for various ruminant species. It enhances milk yield, milk fat, and milk protein production, as demonstrated by research from Schothorst Feed Research in the Netherlands.
Research Findings: Cows supplemented with Mega-Energy showed an increase of 2.1 liters of milk per day over a six-week period, with improvements in milk fat and protein yields and feed efficiency.

Other benefits of Mega-Energy A great source of fat - one of the essential nutrients for herd productivity and animal performance. The right kind of fat - rumen-protected fat, so avoids disruption to fibre digestion as can happen with liquid oils or high-fat ingredients added to the ration. More energy per bite - Mega-Energy increases the energy in every kg of feed, helping cows meet their energy requirements despite reduced intakes particularly through the early lactation period. Energy without acid - Mega-Energy is not fermented so does not add to the acid load in the rumen as is the case with starchy energy sources such as cereals. This allows energy in the diet to be increased without increasing risk of acidosis and compromising herd health. Fertility - additional energy and increased production of the pregnancy hormone progesterone from fat. Energy across species - suitable supplement for a range of ruminant animals. How to feed Mega-Energy Mega-Energy should be mixed with other ingredients in the diet and can be included as part of a total mixed ration, blend or compound pellet.

MECA-ENERCY Mega-Energy is aimed primarily at lactating dairy animals as a supplement to increase milk yield and milk solids. Mega-Energy supplies a concentrated source of energy from rumen-protected fat and is formulated primarily to improve milk production and overall herd performance in lactating dairy cows. The product contains a balance of the palmitic (C16) fatty acid building blocks proven to improve milk fat production and other fatty acids to directly support milk production. Mega-Energy is also an ideal energy source to include in diets for improving performance in other ruminant animals such...
