Forages form the basis of TMR (Total Mixed Rations), but for them to be utilised effectively, a supply of readily fermentable energy such as sugar is also required. Using molasses based liquid feeds in the TMR is the perfect solution.

Feeding a molasses blend is an easy way to supply a good source of fermentable energy in a well-balanced diet to help maximise herd health, performance and fertility. As well as fueling the rumen microbes and stimulating dry matter intakes! 

For optimum rumen function, cows require around 6-8% sugars in the diet. Most forage and concentrate diets cannot supply this without the addition of sugars. Molasses blends provide sugars in the form of sucrose, proven to be the most beneficial to rumen function. Molasses based liquid feeds can be the most cost-effective source of sugar available on farm.   Molasses can also aid in fibre digestion as well as being a protein.
