A University of Illinois study led by animal scientist Phil Cardoso found that rumen-protected methionine supplements altered gene expression in dairy cow ovarian follicles and reduced inflammation-related genes. The follicle growth difference was not statistically significant, though the researcher observed a pattern.
The findings point to a possible modest rise in demand for feed-grade methionine if dairy producers adopt supplementation for reproductive and health benefits. The effect on prices is likely small given the early, single-study evidence.
