U.S. Dairy Forage Research Center Webinar: USDFRC 2024 Update – Jan. 3

Dec 29, 2023

Please join us for a turn-of-the-year update. We will provide a vacancy update including positions we have filled and positions in the process of being filled. We’ll also address current vacancies that are in line to be advertised, as well as discuss our plans for addressing office and lab space shortages on the near and long-term. We’re also excited to share our progress on getting the construction started for the new dairy. Finally, we will lay out a plan for a revision and broadening of our stakeholder engagement strategy that we hope will continue our grassroots (pardon the pun) approach to prioritizing research efforts. Stay tuned for additional topics of interest. We look forward to you joining us!

Video: New Solution Powers Efficient Pork Growth

Alltech has introduced Olerix, an innovative phytogenic blend created to promote growth and feed efficiency in pigs. Through a proprietary coating process, the bioactive blend of phytogenic compounds used in Olerix is designed to outlast the manufacturing process, ensuring consistent outcomes from feed to finish. The result is a high-impact efficiency solution that provides consistent support for gut health, feed efficiency, immune function and growth performance. Olerix is backed by validated trials conducted under modern pork production conditions.

“As the industry searches for technology to drive profitability forward in a more sustainable manner, we’re thrilled to join that effort with our Olerix technology,” said Mark Hulsebus, general manager for U.S. pork at Alltech. “Our work in this phytogenic space is yielding very encouraging results, and we’re excited to make this new opportunity available to pork producers focused on optimizing feed efficiency and growth rates.”

“Olerix represents the next generation of phytogenic technology — combining feed efficiency, livability and immune support into a practical commercial solution producers can implement today,” said Andy Rash, U.S. monogastric director at Alltech.
