APT Program

Anti-Protozoal Treatment (APT) Program for Dairies

SarTec has completed many successful dairy trials incorporating the new patent-pending Anti-Protozoal Treatment (APT) Program. Results indicated a statistically significant increase in milk production (P < 0.01). An article from the Texas Dairy Review briefly explains the effect of saponins on rumen protozoa.

All Yucca Feeding Programs Are Not Equal

Yucca has been fed to both beef and dairy cattle for decades. Previous dairy trials have small and sporadic improvement in milk production, although health benefits have been well documented. SarTec has now discovered why past programs have not been successful:

Quantity is critical

Formulation is critical

Timing is critical

SarTec’s new APT program is patent pending.
