Animal welfare
Different animals require specific nutrients such as proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals in their feed for proper growth, maintenance, and reproduction.
Feed ingredients vary based on the animal's nutritional needs and can include grains (corn, wheat), protein sources (soybean meal, fish meal), fats and oils, vitamins, and minerals.
Feed is formulated to meet the nutritional requirements of specific animals at different stages of life.Good manufacturing practices ensure feed safety and quality. Contaminated or improperly formulated feed can lead to health issues.
Feed production is often regulated to ensure safety and nutritional adequacy. Compliance with these regulations is important for animal welfare and food safety.
