A brilliant day at the Welsh Dairy Show for our RBM for Wales, Anwen Jones, and our RBM for Ireland, Bryan Buckley. 🐄 🌟

Our Bara Brith and Welsh cakes went down very well with customers old and new 😀 and the luck of Irish was with us as we took home the award for Best Indoor Show Stand! 🏆

Another highlight of the day was presenting winners of the National Federation of Young Farmers' Clubs stockjudging competition, which we were proud to sponsor, with their well-deserved trophies. 👏 👏

Big thanks to the judges and all who visited us today.

Many farmers are facing challenges with variable silage quality this year.

Gethin and Eleri Gibbin, who milk 350 autumn-calving cows at Drefach Farms in Carmarthenshire, use Levucell SC Rumignition, a three-in-one yeast farm pack, to help cows adapt. 🐄

Feeding the combination of rumen-specific live yeast, hydrolysed yeast and yeast cell wall at 40g/cow per day last winter helped maintain consistent milk production in spite of seasonal fluctuations, Gethin explains. ✅

“Because we’re feeding wholecrop and maize, we’ve been using it as an insurance policy to mitigate potential mycotoxin threats,” he says.

“Cows are healthier and performing well, and dung consistency has improved.”

As the clocks go back this weekend and winter starts closing in, it’s a good time to review your winter schedule!

Don’t wait for problems to arise – here’s some food for thought
for optimising your cubicle management and winter feeding strategies with the help of beneficial microorganisms. 💭❄️

Cubicle management:
🐄 Is your bedding conditioner doing the job it should be to support cow health and comfort this winter?
🐄 How are you promoting the growth of beneficial microorganisms to improve the overall cubicle environment?

Winter feeding:
💭 With forage quality generally very variable this year, have you considered the impact of ration variability on rumen health?
💭 Are your cows getting the right balance of protein and energy (especially fibre), to meet their needs, and have you considered how a rumen-specific live yeast could help maximise feed efficiency?

The variation in silage quality this year has been extreme. That means there’s no ‘one-size-fits-all’ feeding plan this ...

The variation in silage quality this year has been extreme. That means there’s no ‘one-size-fits-all’ feeding plan this winter.

Here are some practical tips to help with balancing winter rations:

➡️ Sample clamps at least every four weeks to catch any changes in forage quality early and adjust feeding plans accordingly.

➡️ If silage is high in dry matter, blend drier forages with moist feeds (e.g. brewers' grains) to increase palatability and digestibility. This also minimises cows sorting feed, reducing the risk of acidosis.

➡️ Transition cows should be fed well-preserved high quality forage to ensure a smooth transition to milking rations. Feeding the rumen-specific live yeast, Levucell SC, also helps maintain a more consistent dry matter intake during this period.

➡️ Finally, effective clamp management is also essential to preserving the feed value you have. Maintaining a sharp shear grab will make a cleaner cut, reducing oxygen entering - resulting in less waste.

The history of Lallemand Animal Nutrition

From Baker’s yeast…

End of the 19th century: Lallemand was founded in Montreal by a young immigrant from Alsace: Fred Shurer. Since his name was difficult to pronounce for his fellow citizens, he was nicknamed “Lallemand”, which is the French for “the German.” He kept the name and gave it to the company. In 1923, Fred started producing baker’s yeast in the Préfontaine Street plant in Montreal, which is still in operation today, to supply the North American baking industry.

1952: The Chagnon family purchased Lallemand, moving the company forward from a baker’s yeast producer to a major player in the development and production of specific yeast and bacteria strains, serving markets such as baking, beer brewing, oenology, spirits, biofuels, plant care, food, human health, pharmaceuticals, and animal nutrition. The company practically grew from yeast to become a global leader in microbial fermentation.

Today, Lallemand is globally present with more than 30 yeast and bacteria production plants. With more than 4,000 employees around the world, the group has an active business presence on all five continents.
