UTILISING ADVANCEMENTS IN NIR TECHNOLOGY TO OPTIMISE THE FEED PRODUCTION PROCESS
17 June 2016Understanding the variability in feedstuffs could be the key to unlocking greater returns from feed formulation, according to Dr Hadden Graham, Global Technical Director at AB Vista. Recent advances in NIR technology will allow us to better understand the variation within and between feedstuffs, helping support more accurate formulation decisions and enhancing the efficiency of the feed formulation process. “At a time when feed production makes up to 70% of variable animal production costs, such developments have real potential to optimise rations – and feed efficiency,”
