Importance of Maintaining Cattle Gut Health
No one likes an upset stomach, feeling gassy and bloated. It almost always is guaranteed to ruin your day or even bring you down for a whole week. Just as it can affect us, we need to be mindful of digestive upset in our cattle, what we are feeding them, and how that can be problematic to their overall health and performance. The cattle stomach is divided in to four compartments or chambers: the rumen, reticulum, omasum, and abomasum. The one we typically focus on in relation to gut health is the rumen.
