The Legend of Dams In Dairy Nutrition

For hundreds of years , dams have been used to supply power, from operating grain mills to turning large-scale power generators. Regardless, the fundamental concept remains unchanged: too much water will overflow the dam - resulting in wasted power - while too little water results in no power at all.

Protein balances in a similar fashion: a flood of amino acids overflows the cow’s ability for protein synthesis - resulting in waste - while too few results in inefficient production. By using an ethylcellulose coating, Mepron® allows for a time-released flow of methionine that helps optimize protein usage and creates a steady, consistent uptake of methionine.
