Benefits you can achieve with the Rebalance Dairy Line

  • 1. Biovalorization of Manure and Fluidification
  • 2. Biohygienization of the Environment
  • 3. Bioresilience and Animal Welfare
  • 4. Reduction of Emissions and Odors

1. Biovalorization of Manure and Fluidification

Thanks to the Biovalorization of manure achieved with SOP Lagoon, it is possible to reduce nitrogen fertilizer use by 10%.

Biovalorization helps to fluidify manure in underfloor pits, pre-tanks, and storage tanks, while at the same time enhancing its fertilizing potential.

2. Biohygienization of the Environment

Biohygienization® refers to the ability to condition the environment without adding external microorganisms or indiscriminately eliminating beneficial microbial populations.

It makes it possible to create a balance that promotes humification and composting processes instead of putrefactive ones.

Biohygienization® consists of:

Control of environmental pathogens
and up to a 70% reduction in mammary problems;
Reduction of harmful gas emissions
ammonia and odors;
Increase in beneficial microbiota
which results in drier and cleaner bedding and cubicles, lower labor costs, and a reduction in flies.

3. Bioresilience and Animal Welfare

Bioresilience is the ability of a system to withstand stressful events or its tendency to re-establish balance.

It can be achieved in dairy cows through the stimulation of the microbiome, the digestive system, the neuroendocrine system, and the immune system.
The Star products combine Biohygienization® with Bioresilience, with the aim of reducing environmental impact, improving herd welfare, increasing farm profitability, and consequently achieving:

For Dairy Cows:

  • A more stable and balanced ruminal and intestinal microbiome to support normal metabolic functions;
  • Better digestion and nutrient utilization;
  • Improved feed assimilation;
  • Improved fertility rate;
  • Reduced risk of new mammary and placental disorders;
  • Reduction of somatic cell count (SCC);
  • Greater healing and recovery capacity.

For Calves:

  • Supporting rumen development;
  • Increased resilience and strength under stress;
  • Enhanced growth;
  • Greater healing and recovery capacity;
  • Reduced risk of new pulmonary and intestinal disorders.

4. Reduction of Emissions and Odors

Rebalance Dairy line products reduce odor and ammonia emissions right in the barn.

They also provide valuable support in reducing the environmental impact of farming by counteracting greenhouse gas emissions: in the barn, with SOP Star Cow to reduce enteric emissions, and in manure, with the SOP Lagoon additive. This can lead to:

-100%*

Ammonia (NH₃) and Nitrous Oxide (N₂O) emissions

-50%**

Enteric Methane (CH₄) emissions

-80%***

Methane (CH₄) emissions from manure

-75%***

Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) emissions
