Proven to increase milk yield, protein, and fat
The dairy animal needs Amino Acid as a building block for synthesizing all the proteins required by the body for optimal function and for the secretion of milk protein. This ranges from synthesizing enzymes involved in metabolism to producing proteins in muscle and milk. Therefore, it is no surprise that dairy cows fed AA-balanced rations are healthier but also maximize milk yield and energy-corrected milk (ECM) due to the enhanced secretion of both milk protein and milk fat.
Smartamine® M has been proven to increase milk yield, protein, and fat over a span of more than 20 years of compiled publications, as seen in the graphics (below).

Reproductive Performance
Smartamine® M plays a role in several key factors directly related to reproduction success
MET intervenes at several key stages of the reproduction cycle:
- Improved follicle quality (more estradiol and better size)
- Better uterine environment (less inflammation)
- Improved embryo composition (more lipids)
- Improved pregnancy recognition (embryo size)
Resulting in:
- Lower Pregnancy Losses
- Reduced Calving Interval
- Lower Involuntary Culling
- Reduced Days in Milk
- Lower Pregnancy Losses
- Reduced Calving Interval
- Lower Involuntary Culling
- Reduced Days in Milk

Herd Longevity
Greater Lifetime Performance
As for all nutrients, AA requirements depend not only on maintenance needs and the immediate needs for milk performance but also on the AA needs for the well-being of the dairy animal such that she can fend off disease, reproduce regularly, and have a long, productive life.
Environmental Sustainability
For Nitrogen Utilization and Sustainable Dairying
To overcome the complexities of the ruminant digestive system, nitrogen (N) has continued to be overfed in dairy rations. Typically, only 25% of ingested N is transformed into milk protein. At the rumen level, there is a fear to limiting the rumen degradable protein (RDP) supply and negatively impacting carbohydrate digestion. This is compounded by not dialing in the minimal bypass protein of ideal AA composition needed to complement microbial protein supply.
