Rumen bypass fat, also known as rumen-protected fat or bypass fat, is a specialized dietary supplement widely used in animal nutrition, particularly for ruminant animals such as dairy cows. It provides a concentrated source of supplemental energy in the form of fats or fatty acids that are designed to bypass rumen fermentation and be digested directly in the small intestine.
Rumen bypass fat can help improve the energy balance of dairy cows, which can enhance milk production and reproductive performance.
It may also lead to improved body condition in cows. Rumen Bypass Fat is used as a supplement to increase energy supply in early lactation diets of cows and sheep.

Ruminant animals, such as cows, have a unique digestive system featuring a specialized stomach chamber called the rumen, where microbial fermentation of feed occurs. However, this fermentation process is often inefficient at breaking down dietary fats. Rumen bypass fats are formulated to deliver a concentrated source of energy that resists rumen fermentation and instead reaches the small intestine, where it can be absorbed more effectively.
Composition : Rumen bypass fats are typically made from various fat sources, including vegetable oils, animal fats, or synthetic fats. These fats are specially treated or coated to make them resistant to microbial breakdown in the rumen, ensuring they pass through to the lower digestive tract intact.
Energy Source : The primary purpose of including rumen bypass fat in the diet of ruminants is to boost their energy intake. This is especially important for dairy cows, which require high levels of energy to support optimal milk production.
Rumen-protected fats for dairy cattle with 100% fat from vegetable sources are used to improve milk production, and fertility and minimize body weight loss of dairy cattle. This HIGH ENERGY FAT provides the missing link between increased milk production and low feed intake.
This Fat is developed using the most optimal Palm oil sources as an Energy Supplement for cattle feed.
