All-Lac is a natural concentrated probiotic which helps the animal establish a stable and healthier microflora in the gut during the first days of life and after antibiotic therapy. This makes it hard for bad bacteria to get a foothold.
Energy BC is a nutrient dense protected fat that is designed to help promote body condition, fertility and overall cow performance.
Fibrozyme uses Alltech’s unique enzyme technology to unlock more of the nutrients in fibrous feeds. This means more energy can be extracted providing more energy for the animal thus improving feed conversion efficiency.
At Alltech, we help farmers feed the world, raise healthy plants and animals, and protect the environment through nutrition and scientific innovation.

People tend to stay inside, wear warm clothes, turn on the heat and eat warm food. But what do animals do? They need to survive and, depending on their location and what species… more
Understanding horse nutrition: The next hurdle in equine research
Dr Lucy Waldron PhD RNutr
Most horse people know me for my articles in the press and research work. But, in fact, I work with all species — agricultural, exotic and pets.

Mycotoxins are toxic compounds produced by mould. Experts in the area of mycotoxin research have observed an increasing frequency of large-scale contamination events, and some of these events have been severe enough to influence the trading practices of raw materials. In New Zealand, whilst many view imported commodities as a source of risk, home-grown forages and conserved feed present their own… more
Country TV recently celebrated 11 years of being on-air. When the term ‘on-air’ is used, this refers to broadcast television.
Being 100% kiwi-owned and produced, the one aspect that separates Country TV to other TV channels in New Zealand, is the focus on rural New Zealanders. This is supported with the rich selection of programmes of the very best in agriculture, local news and current affairs… more
