Today, cattle feeders rely on Rumensin - an ionophore used as a feed additive
- from start to finish to prevent and control coccidiosis and to improve feed
efficiency by providing more energy from the ration. By controlling disease and
increasing the efficiency of rumen fermentation, Rumensin reduces feed intake
variation - thus improving rumen function and gastrointestinal
health.
With the approval, the maximum dose increases to 480 mg/hd/d for
feed efficiency for feedlot cattle. For the prevention and control of
coccidiosis, the maximum Rumensin dose also increases to 480 mg/hd/d for feedlot
cattle.
