NEWS 10 FEED & ADDITIVE MAGAZINE January 2024 Trouw Nutrition, Nutreco's livestock feed business line, is sharing scientific research and unveiling nutritional technologies to support poultry production during the International Production & Processing Expo (IPPE), 30 Jan. to 1 Feb., in Atlanta, GA, U.S.A. Three International Poultry Scientific Forum presentations and an IPPE TECHTalk offer new insights from poultry research initiatives, including trials studying the effects of phytogenic ingredients, trace mineral sources, and organic acid supplementation on flock performance and farm economics. Visitors to the Trouw Nutrition booth (A823) can also learn about advanced technologies to support the production of safe, high-quality feed. Remarking on Selko and Trouw Nutrition’s presence at IPPE, Jaco Eissen, Global Manager Monogastric at Trouw Nutrition, stated, “Poultry producers have to deal with continuously changing circumstances that are influencing their business in 2024. Science-based insights can help producers and nutritionists make decisions that benefit their flocks and their farms.” Read more>> Trouw Nutrition to share its scientific research at IPPE Expo Skretting, one of the world leaders in the manufacture and supply of aquaculture feeds, introduced Nutra Terra, a novelty in hatchery feed with documented high performance and reduced emissions. Trials show a reduction in emissions of phosphorus and zinc from faeces of up to 30%, while fish fed with Nutra Terra have significantly better growth and a lower feed factor. Nutra Terra represents Skretting's largest innovation in grower feed for juvenile fish in over a decade. All available knowledge and research have been gathered to develop a new and optimised feed recipe, according to the company's statement. The result is a feed that provides better performance while reducing emissions from the fish and making better use of raw materials in the feed. The company believes that the key to success lies in raw materials. Skretting explains that Nutra Terra contains smaller amounts of limited raw materials, such as fishmeal and phosphorus, compared to conventional hatchery feeds. Part of the fishmeal is replaced with insect protein, which is part of the natural diet of salmon in the wild during this life stage. "Validation trials show a 7% increase in growth and a 4% lower feed factor in fish fed with Nutra Terra. It is gratifying to see such good performance numbers while reducing the need for limited raw materials," says Marcus Søyland, Head of Land Based in Skretting Norway.
