Feed & Forage

Price and availability of raw material, protein content and mycotoxin risk - just some of the challenges to consider when producing animal feed today. Reliable analytical data helps you to navigate the storm so that you can always achieve the best possible results. 

Learn how you can check for mycotoxins and quality parameters such as protein, moisture, fiber, fat and others at the touch of a button. What’s more, the same analytical solutions help to control products in process and final products. Wherever and whenever tests are performed, instrument software and networking technology ensure traceable and transparent analytical operations throughout the organization.

Whether you are a supplier or a user of feed ingredients, rapid and reliable analysis of parameters such as phytates and amino acids ensures profit and brand protection in a competitive global market.

As an ingredients supplier, rock-solid analytical performance ensures that your products live up to promised nutritional performance. As a feed producer, rapid tests on both feed materials and added ingredients allows you to fine-tune feed formulations for optimal nutritional performance and minimal cost of production. Further, the connectivity and software aspects of today’s near infrared (NIR) analytical solutions ensures smooth analytical operations for both ingredients suppliers and feed producers alike.

Forages cover up to 80% of energy intake for livestock, particularly for beef and dairy cattle. However, the quality of forage is often difficult to predict as it varies from batch to batch and even with significant variation in the nutrient and dry matter content across the silage clamp. 

Innovative analytical solutions give you the analytical data you need to make the most rational and effective use of this essential feed source. The automation of chemical methods and use of indirect methods such as near infrared are increasingly important for understanding parameters such as moisture, protein, fibre and more.  

Just as consumers demand transparency when it comes to the food they consume, the same holds true for the products they buy for their pets. 

Rapid and easy-to-use analytical solutions help you to meet quality standards for diverse products such as dry pet food, wet pet food and treats. What’s more, the availability of reliable analytical data helps you to gain more profit from the production process while adopting an agile approach to the demands of a highly dynamic market.
