Buffalo
BIOSMARTPRO® applies the same microbiome-focused rumen rationale to buffalo, developed to support fermentation efficiency in dairy buffalo systems. It works with the existing ration rather than replacing it.
The aim is to help the rumen convert the diet already fed into productive metabolic energy more efficiently, supporting milk performance and rumen stability alongside balanced rationing and sound management.
Buffalo milk is valued for its solids, and efficient rumen fermentation underpins productive energy supply. BIOSMARTPRO® is designed around the interactions that shape rumen fermentation.
- Microbial coordination — rumen microbial communities function through coordinated interactions rather than isolated processes.
- Fermentation efficiency — designed to support productive rumen fermentation dynamics.
- Productive utilisation — connects fermentation biology with the productive utilisation of the existing ration for milk.
The approach is most relevant around transition and early lactation, when metabolic demand is highest.
BIOSMARTPRO® is included in the daily ration as a complementary feed. In practice:
- Introduce gradually and feed consistently every day.
- Use alongside a balanced ration, clean water and sound management.
- Maintain through transition and early lactation.
Inclusion is set per herd according to the ration and production stage. For a farm-specific recommendation, contact our technical team.
Guided by the rumen rationale. Use in buffalo is guided by the same fermentation-efficiency rationale established in ruminant nutrition; controlled study data to date is in dairy cattle. We report controlled data separately from field observations.
Field observations in buffalo systems vary by farm, genetics and management, and are reported as field experience rather than controlled results.
Our team can help design a structured on-farm evaluation for your herd.
