Full Description
Substantial volumes of co-product feeds are produced in British food and drink factories. Although sometimes referred to erroneously as processing wastes, these feeds have the provenance as the principal products of such enterprises, being derived from the same carefully selected raw materials and subjected to the same rigorous safety checks.
In this book, each co-product feed is described precisely in both words and figures, allowing the reader to distinguish between grains and super grains, peeled potato and potato peel, steep liquor and spent wash. A range of background information provides additional reassurances: how sugar beet fields are audited to ensure good farming practice; how potatoes are chopped and cooked to improve both their nutritional value and safety; how the extraction of sugar and starch from grain leaves feed materials that are richer sources of energy and protein. Guidance on feeding and storage is provided with cautionary notes for the farmer, and pointers to the factory where improved practices can enhance feed quality.
Co-product Feeds is a book that will be of value, interest and benefit to farmers, nutritionists, legislators, students and others involved in the feed industry.
