OneTrak Claims.

A macro-ingredient for dairies that is Right Made Simple. Feeding practices are simplified while improving the health and performance of herds. Fed at 40% of the ration, it improves rumen health and results in greater energy intake and utilization of the entire diet.

OneTrak improves income over feed cost (IOFC)
In a pooled analysis of six research trials, IOFC was improved by over $0.60/hd. While this number changes depending on market dynamics, OneTrak consistently delivers improved economic returns to dairy operations.

Improved IOCF by over $0.60/hd

OneTrak improves milk production and components, leading to greater energy-corrected milk
In a pooled analysis of six research trials, where OneTrak was fed at 35–40% of the diet, milk production increased (7.4 lbs), component yield (both milk fat (0.25 lbs) and milk protein (0.27 lbs)) was improved, and fat and energy-corrected milk were increased (6.8 and 7.6 lbs, respectively).
Pooled Analysis
Milk production increased by 7.4 lbs
Milk fat increased 0.25 lbs and protein by 0.27 lbs

OneTrak changes the rumen microbiome, resulting in improved nutrient utilization
OneTrak establishes a different microbial population vs. a conventional ration. This sets up the rumen to utilize the entire ration.
Improved energy utilization

OneTrak promotes healthy rumen epithelial tissue, which helps maintain a healthy rumen pH
Feeding OneTrak in dairy diets provides more butyrate as a substrate in the rumen. This aids in keeping the rumen healthy. Butyrate helps the rumen epithelium to form, regenerate, and repair healthy tissue, which in turn can lead to better absorption by the animal and a more healthy rumen pH. Butyrate is important for rumen epithelial development and function and aids in increased blood flow to the rumen and VFA absorption (Storm et al., 2011). A meta-regression analysis showed that butyrate concentrations increased in OneTrak diets. This may improve VFA absorption from the rumen, which may aid in maintaining a healthy rumen pH (Krogstad et al., 2021).
Less variable rumen pH
Higher overall rumen pH

At recommended inclusion levels, OneTrak increases DMI (dry matter intake) by as much as four lbs, without sacrificing efficiency of energy-corrected milk production
In an analysis of six studies, where OneTrak was fed between 35-40% of the diet, DMI was increased by four lbs (P=0.06), while ECM/DMI was not different between the treatments.
Increases DMI by as much as 4 lbs

Feeding OneTrak improves ration accuracy
OneTrak is one of the most accurate additions in a dairy TMR, leading to more consistency in the diet and more consistency to the nutrient delivered to the cow.
Average Batch Error by Ingredient tyep

Reduced batching time
Eliminating ingredients and a premix saves dairies an average of two hours of batching time every day.
Save an average of 2 hours of batching time per day

Feeding OneTrak improves efficiency and simplifies the dairy operation by eliminating the need for a premix
Feeding OneTrak at 40% of the diet eliminates the need to make an on-farm premix. This translates into about another hour/day of time savings attributed to the simplicity of OneTrak.
Eliminates need to make an on-farm premix

Feeding OneTrak simplifies the operation by eliminating 4–5 ingredients (on average) that an operation has to source and handle
When feeding OneTrak, dairies typically eliminate 4–5 ingredients on-farm, with some commercial herds replacing as many as nine. This translates into an average time savings per batch of over 4.5 minutes, and adds up to about an hour of time savings in batching the TMR daily.
