Slow-Release Nutrients in Ruminant Nutrition:Optimizing Efficiency for Sustainable Livestock ProductionBy Md. Emran Hossain, Shilpi Islam
Abstract: The use of slow-release nutrients in ruminant nutrition has emerged as a promising strategy to enhance efficiency and promote sustainability in livestock production systems. Unlike conventional nutrient sources that are rapidly degraded in the rumen, slow-release formulations provide a controlled, steady release of essential nutrients, such as nitrogen, amino acids, minerals, and vitamins. This steady supply supports optimal rumen microbial activity, improves nutrient utilization, and minimizes metabolic disturbances, leading to …
