microbial products
assist hog farmers
While some segments of
society are just starting to
discover the benefits of
microbes, Nuhn Bio -Tech has
been working with farmers for 10
years now to make hog farming
more efficient and easier.
"Our business was built on the
hog industry's early acceptance of
our microbial products," says
Darnell Nuhn.
Man has employed micro-
organisms for thousands of years
to make bread rise, to ferment
wine and beer, to turn milk into
cheese and eventually to dispose
of waste products from an
industrial society. For many years,
before the work of Louis Pasteur,
no one knew what caused wine to
ferment. Today there is a huge
interest by scientists in what
bacteria can do to break down
the wastes of any organic product
such as food wastes and industrial
wastes into water, carbon dioxide
and protein.
Nuhn Bio -Tech, now in its 10th
year of serving farmers, offers
three bacterial inoculant products
to assist pork producers.
Sani-Bac makes the job of
washing hog pens and crates
much easier. It not only removes
odours but liquifies manure build
up on all surfaces and gutters.
Sani-Bac promotes a healthier
environment and costs much less
than chemical disinfectants.
Primalac is a viable microbial
feed additive that has been used
in all types of livestock feed
programs across North America
for more than a decade. In dozens
of accredited feed trials Primalac
has demonstrated superior
performance and stability.
Years of experience help Nuhn
Bio -Tech advise farmers about
waste treatment. They offer such
products as Manure Activator or
micro aeration to help solve waste
problems at low cost.
The company also supplies
