Mixing
GET THE OPTIMAL MIX YOUR COWS REQUIRE, CONSISTENTLY, EVERY DAY
KEENAN machines are unique in the proven nutritional benefits they deliver. Each KEENAN is engineered to use a gentle mixing action to produce evenly, thoroughly mixed, light, fluffy feed that is never over- or under- mixed. We call this optimal mix ‘MechFiber’. Using our InTouch technology and support, all feed ingredients are consistently added in the same order and ratios.
Independent trials have consistently shown that MechFiber retains the fibre structure to stimulate rumination, allows greater absorption of energy and maximises feed conversion efficiency.
KEENAN machines are built to order, allowing for customisation of each machine to suit individual needs and a variety of farm set-ups. Each machine can be provided either as a trailed or as a stationary unit driven by an electric motor.
Reducing the challenge of storage mycotoxins
Safeguarding the well-being and performance of livestock are top priorities in any animal agriculture operation. But mycotoxins, which present a serious and ongoing risk to feed quality, can undermine those goals. The Alltech European Harvest Analysis has revealed a notably high mycotoxin challenge for 2023, primarily attributed to the challenging...
The heightened risk of Penicillium mycotoxins in European forage
Testing shows that the greatest mycotoxin risk in European total mixed rations comes from Penicillium mycotoxins. A proper mycotoxin control programme during the forage storage period reduces the level of risk....
2023 harvest: Early insights into Europe’s mycotoxin landscape
As producers in Europe navigate the complexities of an ever-changing climate, a growing body of evidence underscores the critical role that climate variability plays in shaping mycotoxin landscapes — and risks — across regions. ...
