The domino effect of mycotoxins in cattle
In today’s episode we explore the complicated web of mycotoxins and their compounding effects on cattle health. Together with Dr. Larry Roth, Vice President of Nutrition at Agrarian Solutions, we discuss the multifaceted ways mycotoxins target cows, creating a domino effect of adverse consequences that are often misunderstood.
Discover how multiple mycotoxins employ a unique strategy of attack, yet intersect with others to compound the negative effects on cattle. From disrupting rumen function to hindering nutrient absorption, mycotoxins can trigger a cascade of issues that impact milk production, reproduction, and growth, leading to misdiagnosis and misconceptions.

When 2+2 = 5
In this episode, we dive deep into the challenge of identifying the root causes of herd health performance issues. Among a complex web of factors impacting herd performance—including genetics, management practices, environmental conditions, nutrition balancing, and more —it's all too easy to overlook the presence of toxins until things don’t add up.
Tune in as we uncover the importance of early toxin elimination in simplifying the diagnostic process and expediting solutions. Premier Select Sires Product Manager, Jeff Hostetter will share actionable strategies for defending and safeguarding animals when toxins are a part of the equation, ensuring they're treated with the value they deserve.

Why reproduction is the first to go.
In this episode we unravel the intricate layers of a cow's biological hierarchy, where the immune system takes precedence over milk production and reproduction. Discover why immune challenges such as mycotoxins, heat stress, overcrowding, mastitis, and lameness trigger an inflammatory response, leading to a redirection of nutrients towards immune support. We will explore why "reproduction is always the first to go" when a cow faces immune challenges.
Tune in as Dr. Larry Roth shares insights on how understanding nutrient allocation can lead to more effectively optimizing cattle health and productivity. Want to discuss this further? Contact us.

Research Proven: DTX is the ultimate X-factor in combating mycotoxins!
On today’s episode Scott Zehr and Dr. Larry Roth further discuss the 920-cow study focusing on the statistically significant reproduction improvements. Even with DON and Zearalenone toxins present in the feed at levels considered acceptable by many, the study revealed tremendous potential for improving first-service conception rates when mycotoxins are controlled.
To grasp the true impact of mycotoxins on cattle health and production, routine testing of feedstuffs is necessary. It’s critical to know what is actually going into the cow and the only way to do that is to test feedstuffs, especially the TMR! Contact us here - https://agrariansolutions.com/contact)

The ultimate X-factor in combating mycotoxins: Production outcomes
We're diving into a fascinating study that sheds light on mycotoxin management in cattle. Despite the presence of DON and Zearalenone toxins in the feed at levels deemed tolerable by many, the study yielded statistically significant improvements in production and reproduction metrics when they are controlled.
In this episode Scott Zehr and Dr. Larry Roth we will drill into the production outcomes of the study and the theory behind it.
