Product AMAFERM
Location USA, Kansas

Trial  A

Year 1998
Summary Amaferm has been shown to increase the growth rate and doubling time of both the fiber digesting bacteria in the rumen as well as several strains of the lactate utilizing bacteria. In many cases, Amaferm helps mitigate the negative effects of antimicrobials on bacterial growth rates.
