Introducing: Rhyzogreen, By Riomax

Redwood Falls, Minnesota - You may not be interested in regenerative agriculture or soil health. And that’s okay. But whether you’re into regenerative ag or not, there’s a good chance you ARE interested in land health and production. In other words, increasing plant yield and nutrient value. And that’s where Rhyzogreen™, the latest Riomax® product comes in.
 
Rhyzogreen™ is a direct food source for the soil microbial population, which impacts root structure, plant health & resilience, and ultimately yield.
 
Bottom line, soil health directly correlates to plant health. There’s an enormous amount of nutrients in the soil, but only a small percentage is available in a form the plant can use. It takes the soil’s microbes to convert soil nutrients into a form plants can absorb and use. And if a soil’s microbial community is stressed by poor growing conditions such as soil compaction, excess moisture, too little moisture, up to 80% of microbes can remain dormant or inactive.
 
Whether it’s corn or beans, small grains or alfalfa, hay ground or rangeland, the Rhyzogreen™ science works the same. Feed those microbial communities. Stimulate life. Set in motion a wonderful natural response.

Video: What Happens When Pigs Adapt to High Soybean Meal Diets? - Gustavo Lima



In this special rerun episode of The Swine Nutrition Blackbelt Podcast, Gustavo Lima, PhD candidate in Animal Science at Iowa State University, discusses how grow-finish pigs respond to high soybean meal diets. He explains the initial drop in feed intake, changes in backfat, later adaptation, energy efficiency, amino acid utilization, and the rise in nitrogen excretion at higher inclusion levels.

“Once they got adapted to the diet, they can handle higher levels of inclusion of soybean meal.”
