Beyond that, odor, consistency, taste and learned eating habits often play a role. The best feeding method is one that maintains optimal body weight and condition. Well-balanced feed contains all the necessary nutrients to strengthen the animal´s immune system, keep their digestive system working properly and ensure a shiny and healthy coat. Our high-performance feed ingredients contribute to the fitness and vitality of dogs, cats and other pets so they may spend many years as part of the family.

Poultry
Poultry demand is growing by two to three percent every year and will continue to expand with nine billion people consuming ever-larger amounts of eggs and poultry meat by 2050. Producing poultry and eggs in turn comes with more and more challenges.
Pigs
Pigs are monogastric (single stomach) animals and are inefficient digesters of fibre. Their nutritional requirements for optimal and healthy growth and performance are influenced by different factors such as e.g. the genetic potential, age and body weight or the physiological state.
Aquaculture
Aquaculture or aquafarming is the farming of fish, crustaceans and shellfish in salt and fresh water. With demand rising by two to three percent every year and many marine fish stocks already overfished, more than half of all fish and seafood now comes from aquaculture, which has grown at a double-digit clip for decades.
