From farmers to feed producers, this eBook covers topics that will have an impact on future ways of working, as well as offering insights into today's market.

"Our feed ad food business area has always had both feet planted firmly in the market. This review emphasises Perstorp's position as thought leader in this market, and it's great to see so many people come together to share their expertise with the world," said Roger Mann, executive vice president of Perstorp Feed & Food.

"Feed and food is a focus area for Perstorp, and it's vital for us to give something back to the market. Through this review, we are offering valuable insights for the people that will help the industry grow and improve in the long term."

The Feed Acid Review 2018 is based on months of research, as well as interviews with scientists, professors, farmers and nutritionists. In addition, it contains insights from many business area leaders from within Perstorp, who talk about innovations in products and how they are shaping the future of the industry.

The Feed Acid Review 2018 puts many important topics into the spotlight, including: expert opinions from market analysts, researchers, nutritionists and feed industry actors that talk about the current position of the industry, and what to expect for the future; smart farming, and how technology is changing the way farmers will manage their feeding practices and livestock (a recent trial in Europe has produced some "eye-opening" results, and connected devices are set to become commonplace over the coming years); the future of organic acid use in feed for preservation and animal gut health, and what the industry can do to improve and maintain it.

Experts also discuss about advances in know-how and technology, and how additives can play an important role in the international reduction in the use of antibiotics as growth promoters.
