Forage analysis

We know that optimising your TMR composition with real-time measurements
can result in a yearly profit improvement of up to 234.000 Euro.

Where can you analyse

  • Raw material and compound feed

    Monitor the variability of incoming raw materials

    • Pay the right price for incoming materials
    • Reject out of spec materials
    • Segregate raw materials optimally

  • At the TMR mixer - on farm evaluation

    Update TMR formulation to optimise feed production

    • Know the nutritional value of finished TMR
    • Detect and rapidly correct mistakes in formulation

Amino acid testing with NIR a practical example

7. Dec, 2012
From the archives (2012). Feed nutritionists may be patient people, but never when it comes to waiting for amino acid measurements for their next diet formulation. Rapid analysis with near infrared (NIR) offers a fast and reliable option for amino acid testing that can be just as reliable as reference analysis in the laboratory. Animal nutritionist, Dr Robert Payne of amino acid suppliers, Evonik explains.
