Why
Alka Solutions?
Modern ruminant diets often contain significant levels of cereals, silages and other rapidly fermentable feed materials. Whilst these feeds can support production, they can also increase dietary acid loading and place additional pressure on rumen function.
Home n’ Dry Alkasystems technology has been developed to help livestock producers, nutritionists and feed manufacturers create alkaline feed materials that support rumen stability, improve feed utilisation and maximise the value of home-grown crops and purchased feeds.
Used across dairy, beef and sheep systems, Home n’ Dry products help producers improve feed efficiency whilst supporting animal health, performance and rumen function.

Our raw materials are sourced from
Non-deforestation Areas
At Home n’ Dry we understand that everyone needs to play a role in tackling climate change. Deforestation contributes about 1/5th of total greenhouse gas emissions. We are proud to announce that our raw materials are now sourced from 100% non-deforestation areas.
We also grow some cereals that we feed back to the stock. I’ve always been keen to maximise the nutritional value of what I can grow on my own farm and alkalisation certainly offers the opportunity to do just that.

Are you hitting the optimum
Rumen pH?
A healthy rumen is key to efficient and productive animals, be that in milk production, rearing lambs or growing beef animals to appropriate finish weights. Two things are vital when it comes to optimal rumen health; a stable, active and healthy microbial population and a suitable pH.
Incorporating Home n’ Dry alkaline feeding solutions into your feeding regimen will help to balance rumen pH, improving rumen function which will support animal health and performance.
