Essential Solutions is Accelerated Genetics' newest product line that will feature
various products for organic fed cattle. The first product that is being released
is a Direct Fed Microbial (DFM).
Essential Solutions - Direct Fed Microbial for Organic Cattle

Solutions DFM is a combination of ruminant specific microorganisms that
promotes proper rumen micro flora function and growth for a more stable and effective
digestive tract. DFMs are very effective, and with
an improved rumen environment it can lead to higher production, allows for better
feed efficiency, and reduces the risk of pathogenic microbes becoming established
in the digestive system to improve overall animal health. In addition, stable digestive
tracts are better equipped to absorb required nutrients needed for crucial biological
functions such as reproduction.

One of the single biggest factors in having a healthy productive herd is to have a balanced ration not only for the millions of fungi, bacteria, and yeast that are living inside the cow.
To maintain an efficient and healthy animal each type of microbe has to be present at the proper ration in order for itself to survive and give the animal the nutrients it needs. Any variation, such as a pH change caused by overfeeding grain or a mycotoxin from poorly stored feed, can destroy specific microbes and throw the balance off which causes problems both in the short term (production) and long term (reproduction).
Accelerated Genetics has years of experience with DFM's with our Tri-Mic line of products and have used that knowledge and experience when we designed our latest DFM. Essential Solutions DFM is a combination of ruminant specific microorganisms that promote proper rumen micro flora function and growth for a more stable and effective digestive tract.
Use of DFMs in a cow's diet are very effective. With an improved rumen environment it can lead to higher production, allow for better feed efficiency, and reduce the risk of pathogenic microbes becoming established in the digestive system. Together this improves overall animal health. In addition, stable digestive tracts are better equipped to absorb required nutrients needed for crucial biological functions such as reproduction. Sometimes it is difficult, if not impossible, to maintain the correct balance of rumen microbes through diet alone. When this happens, there are many products or tools out there that can help achieve the desires balance.
Traditionally, this balance has been achieved by fighting the microbes that we don't want. Ionophores such as monensin, are used to give preferential treatment to specific rumen microbes by suppressing growth of less desires rumen microbes.
Antibiotics are used in a similar way, but they fight foreign microbes that invade the digestive tract, but they can also attack the beneficial microbes at the same time. DFM's, on the other hand, act to improve rumen function by adding beneficial bacteria to the rumen to outcompete less desirable microbes. By doing this, it allows the rumen's own defense system to balance itself to improve efficiency.
There are many advantages to the Essential Solutions Direct Fed Microbial product. They include product stability, dry formulation, special packaging ensuring the product stability for months, guaranteed viable microbe count and it is USDA certified organic. Further, the on-farm product trial showed improved production when Essential Solutions DFM was fed.
