The animal feed industry is constantly evolving thanks to the development of innovative raw materials, additives or nutritional solutions. However, this increasing offer can create confusion and uncertainty. Beyond prices, the product selection should be based on product performance, quality, and stability supported by reliable scientific studies. More recently, the positive impact of feeding solutions on dairy farm sustainability became an important factor in the decision-making process.

In this live webinar, students, nutritionists, producers, and scientists will be advised on the main points of attention to consider when selecting a nutritional solution. The market of rumen-protected methionine will be taken as an example of the large variability among products, in terms of quality and performance, including their effect on dairy cow health and farm sustainability.
