Feed Value & Feeding norms

  • Influence of raw material
  • Processing

Feed value & Feeding norms

  • Two types of animals:

– Growing animals  pigs, broilers, calves, beef – Steady animals  producing eggs, milk

  • Steady is never steady: pregnancy, health

status

European Feed Industry:

  • Efficient and fast prediction of real feed

value

  • Efficient prediction of real utilisation and

delivery of nutrients

Some more specific subjects

  • Validated models for gut health and immunity
  • Model prediction for feed utilization norms
  • Fast screening technology for nutrient need
  • Nutrient intake determination under grazing

conditions

  • Alternative protein sources, including NW-

European Soy

Conclusions

  • By developing and implementing new

technologies a lot to gain

  • Healthy animals are key for social

acceptance and efficiency

  • And social developments will ask new

breakthroughs
