We do research in feed manufacturing and monogastric nutrition. We contribute with our research to address nutrition challenges in intensive monogastric, pig and poultry production, with a special focus on the impact of nutrition on animal welfare and health, ensuring food security and reducing environmental impact, thus contributing to food supply and local development.
Improved efficiency and reduced nutrient excretion
We improve feed efficiency and reduce the environmental impact of livestock farming through feed manufacturing processing and strategies such as enzyme supplementation.
New ingredients
We evaluate new ingredients and potential technological strategies to optimise their inclusion in feed.
Nutritional strategies to enhance resilience to stress
We study how nutrition can help improve the resilience of animals to stressful situations, whether biotic or abiotic, by strengthening gut health, animal immunity, and stimulating animal consumption.
