Welcome to our webinar, “From data to diet: Software as a driver to boost feed efficiency”.
In the evolving landscape of agriculture, the money spent on animal feed takes up the majority of the production costs on a farm. So, it makes sense to get the most out of every kilogram of feed that is consumed by the animals, known as feed efficiency. This concept is not new, but it has become more relevant than ever as the constantly changing dynamics in agriculture continue to challenge the animal protein sector. With increasing ingredient availability issues and pricing fluctuations, making precise and informed decisions is essential for optimizing animal performance and ensuring profitability. Modern farmers must deal with these complexities to stay competitive. To address these challenges, we invite you to join our upcoming webinar, “From data to diet: Software as a driver to boost feed efficiency”.
During the webinar, our experts will explain how to incorporate real-time data into your calculations to make informed decisions about feed formulation. You’ll learn how to improve quality control and precision nutrition, ensuring that every animal receives the exact nutrients it needs for optimal production and health. This not only boosts feed efficiency but also enhances the overall profitability and sustainability of your operations.
