HEALTH, PRODUCTION, REPRODUCTION
Boost milk production and reduce feed costs with Evonik's methionine for dairy cows. Rumen-protected Mepron® delivers highly concentrated methionine precisely where it benefits the animal most - in the small intestine.
Amino Acids, the building blocks of protein, are essential nutrients for dairy cows.
Mepron® optimizes protein utilization & increases the milk yield of cows.
Rumen-Protected Methionine Mepron®
Methionine is an essential amino acid critical for optimizing health & maximizing performance. Helpful for improving milk production, methionine also positively impacts reproduction and overall health, offering specific benefits to the liver.
Studies show that cows fed Mepron® have a higher Liver Functionality Index, indicating improved liver function and better immunometabolic status. As a result, these animals experience less inflammation and reduced oxidative stress.
Backed by more than 20 years of proven history, Mepron® delivers metabolizable methionine to the dairy cow in a concentrated and consistent time-released format for maximum utilization.
