Denmark's Agro Korn introduces natural vitamin E source
Agro Korn in Denmark has introduced a natural vitamin E source - Vitapherole® EP 1000/50 % - for animals.
The product is a natural vitamin E on alcohol form derived from non-GM soy bound on silica. And it is used for mixing in compound feed.
For individual pig producer use, Agro Korn has developed VitaVit® Natur E, a less concentrated version mixed in wheat middlings and calcium carbonate.
Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin that is required for animal growth, to maintain immune function and animal health.
Trials at Aarhus University in Denmark indicate that the natural vitamin E is also heat stable after mixing in compound feed.
