Loomix® Overview
Loomix® products are liquid feed supplements. They are designed to enhance the ration of a ruminant animal. This can be done by balancing the ration with protein, vitamins, minerals, enhancing the palatability of the ration, lowering dust, and increasing the overall effect of the ration by increasing digestion. The concept behind all Loomix® products is that they are designed to increase the fiber digesting efficiency of a ruminant animal. Increased fiber digestion by using Loomix® products has been proven by university testing, private research and internal company testing. Loomix® supplements feed the bacteria in the rumen. These bacteria can provide 70% of the animals' energy and protein needs. The bacteria in the rumen have very short life spans, some as little as 20 minutes. Loomix® will increase the volume and frequency of these bacteria. This will allow the animal to get greater utilization of the forage they are consuming. Forage is the most economical source of nutrition for the ruminant animal. Loomix® is a proven leader in improving fiber digestion. Please refer to the research section of our web page.
Carefully selected liquid and dry ingredients compose the Loomix® formulas. These ingredients have been individually tested as well as tested in various combinations. More than 100 different trials were completed in 1997-98 evaluating the ability of these ingredient combinations to digest fiber. Only the proven combinations are included in Loomix® formulas. Loomix® is the leader in controlling intake allowing you to budget your feed costs. Loomix® products are made in different palatabilites from very sweet products to very bitter tasting products. A combination of these ingredients will be on the Loomix® dealers' delivery truck when the feed is delivered direct to your ranch. The products will be blended at your ranch to the right palatability to get the proper consumption. This consumption level is determined by your goals for your livestock.
