Alfalfa was grazed at early stages of growth to test the efficacy of field application of the pluronic detergent Alfasure. Bloat was prevented under optimal weather conditions in the absence of rain but heavy rains could disperse the water-soluble product. A new route of administration of Alfasure was also examined for the treatment of bloat. Intraruminal injection of Alfasure was completely effective in the treatment of bloat, as was intraruminal injection of an industry standard product but on average the response time of Alfasure was significantly faster.
