Insights from EuroTier 2018: Analysing the substrate to optimise feed formulation

This year’s EuroTier exhibition was an exciting opportunity to explore the industry trends and topics that are likely to influence the sector for the year ahead.

One topic discussed was the importance of understanding the substrate in the diet in order to optimise your chosen enzyme application strategy.

Talking at EuroTier, William Greenwood, Technical Services Manager for EMEA, discussed how AB Vista works with customers to identify the substrate levels in their raw materials in feed. “For example, it is important to understand the phytate phosphorous level in the diet for phytase enzyme application, and the fibre components, for NSP enzyme application. This understanding can help producers apply their chosen enzyme strategy with confidence.”
