It can also help reduce the amount of starch reaching the hindgut, where excessive fermentation may be undesirable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x12ofw9d\"\u003eSuitable for all species, micronised barley can support improved growth, production performance and feed conversion efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x12ofw9d\"\u003eThe gelatinisation process increases starch susceptibility to enzymatic breakdown compared with raw starch. This allows starch to be digested more readily in the small intestine, while also influencing its utilisation within the rumen in ruminant animals. As a result, more starch can be made available for digestion and absorption, with less remaining for fermentation in the hindgut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x12ofw9d\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"x12ofw9d\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-quality, micronised barley.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproved starch availability and digestibility.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParticularly suitable for young livestock, companion animals and horses.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports growth, production performance and feed conversion efficiency.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelps reduce the amount of starch available for hindgut fermentation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Meirion Davies \u0026 Co Ltd \/ Meirion Davies a’i Gwmni Cyf","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62823550288259,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1482\/8654\/files\/online_54.png?v=1791982418","url":"https:\/\/www.meiriondavies.co.uk\/products\/micronized-flaked-barley-25kg","provider":"Meirion Davies \u0026 Co Ltd \/ Meirion Davies a’i Gwmni Cyf","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
