The original product of Diamond cattle feed is preferred by most cows. In addition, the product also contains EpiCor, a chemical produced in the same manner as animal products. This chemical helps balance and temper immune system components. The intake response of cows may vary, depending on the specific circumstances. The addition of Aromatic and Flavor Compounds may enhance the intake response, resulting in more milk or reduced body weight loss. These additives are added to the feed in the form of pellets.

AviCare
The Diamond V poultry program includes AviCare(tm) a proprietary liquid nutritional health supplement. Developed to be added to poultry drinking water, this supplement supports health and performance during production challenges. AviCare is compatible with Original XPC cattle feed. Both products can be used at recommended dose levels during all life stages of poultry. During production challenges, birds may be less active and feed consumption decreases. In such cases, AviCare helps support rumen health and productivity.
In addition to its nutritional content, AviCare diamond has anti-stress properties. This ingredient has been proven to reduce stress in broiler chickens, as well as other livestock species. When fed in continuous feed, it reduces stress in poultry. In addition, a study of broiler chickens showed that AVI reduces stress and increases body weight gain. By using this feed, farmers can easily and safely give it to their animals.
Diamond V XP
Diamond V XP is a complete yeast product made from the Saccharomyces cerevisiae fungus. It is an important ingredient in the diet of cattle, because it promotes better digestion and immune system functioning. Diamond V XP is available in concentrate, free-choice and liquid forms. To ensure that the nutritional value of Diamond V XP remains high, it is used in combination with a well-balanced diet.
Cargill Diamond V XP is a nutritionally balanced feed ingredient that promotes the growth of beneficial rumen microorganisms. It helps the cattle’s digestive system function by increasing the availability of energy and improving the pH of the rumen. Additionally, Diamond V XP promotes rumen microorganisms that contribute to better cattle performance. The inclusion of Diamond V XP in the Cargill poultry product line makes the feed a natural choice for producers seeking to maximize animal health.
NutriTek
The latest addition to Diamond V’s product line is NutriTek(r) dairy cattle feed additive. This innovative product supports the rumen’s health and performance by reducing the risk of glucose being diverted to the immune system. In addition, NutriTek improves milk production and overall performance in dairy cows. High-performance and transition cows benefit from NutriTek, as does the poultry industry. The poultry specialist also welcomes the addition of Diamond V XP.
Using QLF liquid supplements, NutriTek increased milk/DMI by 20% and maintained the milk yield of cows on the control diet. These nutrients, which are rich in polyphenols and bioactive metabolite compounds, may also enhance immunity in transition cows. Further, they may help them cope with metabolic stress and inflammation. In addition, NutriTek and QLF liquid supplements disperse throughout the TMR, which may lead to synergistic effects on performance.
Original Product
A recent meta-analysis of studies conducted on beef cattle has found that feeding the Diamond cattle feed Original Product can significantly improve feedlot performance and quality grade. These studies are based on dietary analyses that evaluate the effects of fermentation products on feedlot performance, carcass traits, and daily gain. In the meta-analysis, 28 feedlot studies were included in the analysis. The data analyzed comprised 7,660 cattle. Compared to standard ration, cattle fed Diamond V Original Product gained an average of 3.0 percent more weight per kilogram of dry matter per day, which may be attributed to the higher digestibility.
The company’s proprietary fermentation technology platform was developed over 70 years. Consistent focus on microbial-based fermentation research and technological development helped establish the Diamond V Original Product Line of all-natural feed additives. Its fermentation process provides stable feed without being affected by pH levels or extreme temperatures. This eliminates the need for special storage. The product is comprised of multiple metabolites that support animal health and performance. These benefits, along with the scientific support behind the company’s product, make it a good choice for feedlots.
