ARTICLE FEED & ADDITIVE MAGAZINE November 2024 65 ENHANCING NUTRITIONAL QUALITY THROUGH PROCESSING TECHNOLOGIES As the focus on feed efficiency grows, so does the importance of maintaining the nutritional quality of the feed. AGI’s product line includes advanced feed processing technologies that help preserve essential nutrients during production. For example, AGI’s teardrop hammer mill, available as part of the AGI FLEXmill system, is designed to help ensure consistent particle size reduction – critical for improving feed digestibility and enhancing overall animal health. In addition, AGI offers a range of batching and mixing equipment that can help maintain even distribution of nutrients in feed formulations. The AGI horizontal paddle mixer, for instance, significantly reduces mixing time while maintaining a high coefficient of variation (CV), ensuring that all ingredients are thoroughly and evenly blended. This is essential for producing high-quality feed that meets nutritional requirements. AGI AND PRODUCERS: ENVISIONING THE FUTURE TOGETHER We continue to work closely with producers, to ensure that we fully understand their needs – and are able to deliver feed solutions that precisely meet those needs. Maximizing efficiency, minimizing loss, and maintaining quality are always at the forefront of our efforts – because we know these objectives are of prime importance to our customers in the industry, as well.
