The all-purpose feed additive used by the farms is baking soda

Sodium bicarbonate is known as a universal additive. Many farms will choose to add sodium bicarbonate to their feed. What is the benefit of sodium bicarbonate to their breeding?

In our breeding process, no matter what stage of the cattle or sheep, they will add baking soda. What's the magic role of baking soda?

Sodium bicarbonate is an alkaline additive. The addition of sodium bicarbonate to the feed can integrate the acid-base balance in the rumen of cattle and sheep. At present, our large-scale farms are fed with high concentrate feed. If sodium bicarbonate is not added, it will cause excessive rumen acid in cattle and sheep, causing acidosis, which will affect the growth of cattle and sheep.

In addition to comprehensive acid-base balance in rumen of cattle and sheep, sodium bicarbonate can also relieve heat stress. In summer, the intake of cattle and sheep is poor in hot weather. Adding sodium bicarbonate to feed can increase appetite and increase digestion and absorption of cattle and sheep.
