Buffers aid early lactation dairy cows but are not cure-alls
UW Madison researcher Neal Jorgensen says feed buffers help restore rumen pH on high grain or low fiber rations but do not guarantee milk fat recovery to genetic potential. Buffers mainly boost intake and efficiency when fiber is inadequate, with best impact in early lactation and in diets high in corn silage and grain.
