Introduction

Milk Producing Animals Have Four Stomachs, The First Stomach Having A Capacity Of 50-60 Liters, Where The Straws, Feeds And Fodders Are Fermented, Is Called Rumen. Rumen Has Very Large Number Of Bacterial Population, Which Digests These Straws And Grasses. However, When We Are Feeding Cakes And Protein Meals To These Animals, Major Part Of The Proteins (60-70%) Is Broken Down To Ammonia By The Rumen Microbes, And Most Part Of This Ammonia Is Converted To Urea In Liver And Excreted Through Urine. A Significant Part Of Protein Meals, Which Is The Most Expensive Part Of The Animals’ Diet, Is Thus Wasted.

SAFETY ASPECTS

As Bypass Protein Supplement Is Produced In A Specially Designed Airtight Plant, There Is No Risk To Workers Operating Bypass Protein Plant. Moreover, Workers On The Plant Are Advised To Wear Gloves, Masks And Safety Glasses. Meter Is Provided At The Plant, Which Produces Beep-Beep Like Sound If There Is Any Leakage In The Plant And Level Of Chemical Increases Beyond 2 Ppm, A Very-Very Safe Limit. Chemical Used For Treatment Of Protein Meals Is At Very-Very Low Levels And It Poses No Health Risk To Animals. It Is Not Excreted In Milk And No Residues Of Chemical Are Found In Meat Of Beef Animals, As Evidenced By Several Scientific Studies, World Over. Even Use Of Treated Meals Has Been Declared To Be Safe By The USFDA, In The Ration Of Beef And Milk Producing Animals.
