Amino acids, the building blocks of protein, are critical for milk and component production. Lysine and methionine are the two most limiting amino acids, which means peak production and efficiencies cannot be reached without proper ration supplementation.

When lysine and methionine are delivered to the small intestine at optimal levels, milk and component production can be maximized while increasing protein utilization efficiency. Simply put, amino acid balancing provides the critical nutrients cows need for peak performance throughout the lactation.
