CROPS

Various research trials conducted worldwide have all showed positive results concerning the use of Reed-Sedge Peet, (RSP), as an organic feed ingredient (Is this in Black Earth products?). In these trails, it's common to see improved growth rates, or feed conversion ratios, and a stronger resistance against diseases as a result of RSP. By improving immune function of animals, especially of young animals, RSP also reduces the incidence of enteric disease and diarrhea.

Probiotics, prebiotics and postbiotics have beneficial effects on the immune system of animals. But limited astringent effects on the mucous membrane of the gastero-intestinal tract. Plant extracts are believed to be beneficial for the digestive system, Organic acids also have shown positive results. RSP improves diet digestibility as a result of maintaining optimum pH within the gut, resulting in lower levels of nitrogen excretion and less odour. By improving digestibility and food utilization, RSP improve gastric and intestinal conditions of animals, as well as improving physical and financial performance, RSP also has a positive impact on the environment by improving digestibility of feed nitrogen utilization and manure management.  *
