Bovacillus Feed Smarter Spots | Ionophore compatibility

Can Bovacillus™ probiotic be used alongside ionophores?

Yes. Compatibility matters when introducing any feed additive into an existing nutrition program.

In this Feed Smarter Spot, Dr. Oscar Queiroz explains how Bovacillus™ probiotic was evaluated for use alongside ionophores, including monensin. While a brief adaptation phase was observed, Bovacillus™ probiotic continued to grow and reach viable levels. In practice, cattle consume probiotics continuously throughout the day, allowing this natural cycle to repeat with every visit to the feed bunk.

The result? Bovacillus™ probiotic can be confidently incorporated into feeding programs that include ionophores.
