Bypass Fat Supplement – to minimize negative energy balance
- Rations of high-yielding animals are usually deficient in energy, resulting in considerable loss of body weight after calving. This affects the reproductive performance and lactation yield of the animals. Further, if unprotected fat is fed in higher amounts, the digestion of fibre in the rumen is affected, thus impacting milk yield and fat content.
- NDDB has standardized the process for producing bypass fat using palm fatty acid distillate.
