RESULTS SYNTHESIS

The positive effect of pHix-up on ruminal pH has been demonstrated in trials involving over 10,000 dairy cows worldwide, representing different farm sizes and rations. Milk production and total fat also improved with pHix-up. On average, ECM (Energy Corrected Milk) and fat were increased by 1.2 lb and 50 g per cow per day (p<0.001).

Evolution of the pH during 24H for periods before pHix-up and with pHix-up

A better development and functioning of the rumen microflora has been observed thanks to:
• A better stabilization of the ruminal pH with pHix-up
• A reduction in the percentage of time spent at a pH below 5.8

‘I wanted to try an innovative product as I had problems with rumen acidosis.
I was curious to test a blend of different MgO and
the in vitro results on rumen juice pH convinced me to try pHix-up on my farm.
Shortly after I started using it, I saw a stabilization of the rumen pH.
Also, the fat content was 3.4% and increased rapidly to 4.3%!’

‘I have calculated a reduction of cost per cow per day with pHix-up,
in parallel of an increased feed intake during heat stress and
a more stable rumen (less loose faeces, less diarrhea).’

‘My previous buffer didn’t work,
after starting with pHix-up I saw the fat content of the milk increase rapidly,
and it was especially more stable during summertime,
which was not the case before (fat increase by +5g/kg of milk after 3 months).’

‘I have been using pHix-up since 2019,
I have noticed a better stabilization of my cows’
performance under heat stress.’

‘In the past, we sometimes had drops in milk production due to heat stress.
With pHix-up the buffering action has an effect for a longer period of time during the day.
Thanks to this and despite the heat stress and the ration changes,
production remained very stable, and that’s a very important factor! ‘
