Sustainable animal protein production is a balancing act. It is all about finding the optimum equilibrium between optimal feed cost and qualitative animal productivity. If you are a nutritionist i.e., you are concerned with the right feed formula, but you also contribute to achieving a ‘healthy’ business by keeping the cost under control.   #### **How to enhance your profitability ** Feed cost is one of the most important production costs. Optimizing the diet formula while getting the most out of your feed budget, is crucial for a profitable business. Raw materials as such are prone to price and quality fluctuations, making this aspect harder to manage. Therefore, **increasing feed efficiency** is the primary way to more profitability and a sustainable business model. As a commercial feed mill, offering unique, high nutritional yet cost-effective diets, will result in excellent feed conversion, litter quality and more satisfied customers for stronger benchmarking against other feed manufacturers. As an integrated pig meat producer, a more efficient diet will produce more and better-quality carcasses and meat, which directly adds to your profit and increases the appeal of your final product to the consumer.    #### **Improve nutrient digestion and absorption** Years of scientific research and field experience have shown that promoting a more efficient use of essential dietary nutrients through improving their **digestion**, helps pigs to perform better, at a lower feed conversion ratio. The **absorption** aspect through the intestinal wall though, is as highly important in this process. On top, from an ecological point of view, nutrients that are not well absorbed by the animal are excreted, thus lose their nutritional value as dietary components and even can cause a burden on the environment of the pig.
