The latest data behind 250 animal feed ingredients and in excess of 40,000 nutrients, including new amino acids, insect proteins and processed animal proteins, is now available via Premier Nutrition and its Atlas 2025 publication.
The updated global ingredients matrix provides the animal feed industry with the most current and precise ingredient values for efficient feed formulation, said Premier Nutrition’s Dr Lorraine Salmon.
“Atlas 2025 contains more than 250 full feed raw material specifications, each defined by over 150 nutrients,” Dr Salmon said.
“The nutrient matrix has not only been updated using recent quality control data, but we have added fibre fractions – non-starch polysaccharides, total dietary fibre and their solubility – on the back of global research that indicates benefits from soluble fibre found at higher levels in ingredients such as barley and rye.
“In addition, we have included digestible calcium values for pigs and energy and digestible protein values for equine nutrition, as well as a review of digestible phosphorus for pigs and poultry.”
Premier Atlas provides a comprehensive description of listed ingredients, as well as their production, anti-nutritive factors and processing details. In particular, it also details the levels of 17 digestible amino acids, for both pigs and poultry, in over 200 feed ingredients.
