Nutreco starts research partnership in China

14-04-2011 | |

Nutreco starts a research partnership with the Ministry of Agriculture Feed Industry Centre (MAFIC) of China.

The MAFIC institute is part of the China Agricultural University in Beijing, which is China’s leading university on animal nutrition.
 
This new cooperation between Nutreco R&D and MAFIC is the start of a long term research programme on swine and poultry nutrition with researchers from both parties working together on several joint projects.
 
In this way, they can share nutritional knowledge for mutual benefit. Furthermore, it offers Nutreco additional opportunities to expand its international research network and to conduct highly qualified research.
 
Eight research centres
Nutreco’s research is based in eight research centres. These centres are located in Canada, the Netherlands, Norway and Spain, focussing on nutrition, health and husbandry of pigs, poultry, rabbits, ruminants, calves and fish.
 
Further research activities are directed to the discovery of feed ingredients and the improvement of feed production technology.
