Agrame to launch space age animal feed system worldwide

Agra Middle East (Agrame) will be the launch pad for the Almighty Fodder Super Cell, a space age system set to revolutionise production of animal feed worldwide, particularly in drought-prone regions.

The product is set to be unveiled for the first time next month at the Middle East's leading agricultural industry exhibition.

The Almighty Fodder Super Cell can produce low cost, lush and nutritious fresh fodder for over 100 cattle or other grazing animals such as camels every day after only nine days.

Agrame, that takes place at the Dubai International Exhibition Centre from April 8-10, 2008, is four closely linked exhibitions under one roof showcasing the latest advances in agriculture and irrigation, animal husbandry and poultry farming, floriculture and horticulture, plus fisheries and aquaculture.

This year's event will feature over 150 exhibitors from more than 30 different countries, a 60 percent year-on-year increase.

Jim Meltz, show manager for Agrame, said that attendees will not only see the new technology, but can also taste the quality of beef that is grown on the fodder.

The market potential for Agrame technology in a region such as the Middle East where the growing of pasture is almost impossible is potentially enormous, Meltz added.
