Products

Piglets — Post-Weaning

Mustard meal feed with anti-inflammatory and immunostimulatory effects — zinc oxide replacer

The feed includes mustard seed meal and exhibits antimicrobial potential, offering a science-based alternative to zinc oxide formerly used as an intervention premix for microbial infections in farm animals (banned in the EU since 2023). Rich in bioactives (allyl isothiocyanate, polyphenols, minerals, pigments, polyunsaturated fatty acids, organic acids, carbohydrates, etc.), it helps counter transient intestinal inflammation and oxidative stress in piglets after weaning.

Nutrition of lactating sows

Yeast-fermented rapeseed meal formula for piglets after weaning

The feed contains rapeseed meal fermented with Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Fermentation lowers antinutritional factors in rapeseed, increasing nutritional availability and enriching bioactive compounds (minerals, polyphenols, fatty acids, carbohydrates, organic acids), providing anti-inflammatory properties needed to overcome post-weaning stress.

Nutrition of suckling piglets

Black cumin (Nigella sativa) meal feed for piglets after weaning

Alongside conventional ingredients (corn and soybean), the formula includes black cumin seed meal to meet the special nutritional needs in the weaning transition. The product is rich in bioactive substances that support digestion and nutrient absorption and improve health status. It reduces diarrhea incidence, stimulates immune responses, and delivers productive performance comparable to conventional compound feeds.

Pigs — Grower–Finisher

Pea-based feed for growing and finishing pigs

A feed for pigs (25–100 kg) containing field pea (Pisum sativum). Using the pea-based formula achieves zootechnical performance comparable to a conventional recipe (based on classic protein sources).
