Grains
Organic Feed Wheat
Feed wheat grown under organic production conditions; an important grain raw material used especially as an energy and starch source in compound feed production, suitable for the rations of different animal species.
General Information
Organic Feed Wheat is a grain raw material grown in accordance with organic production standards and supplied mainly for use in the animal feed sector. Thanks to its starch content and energy value, it is an important grain source in animal rations.
Whole wheat can be cracked or ground according to its intended use and the needs of the ration. It can be used together with other grains and feed raw materials in the formulation of compound feeds for different animal species.
Uses
Organic Feed Wheat can be used in various animal feeding applications, above all compound feed production.
Main uses:
- In the production of organic cattle feeds
- In the production of organic sheep and goat feeds
- In the production of organic poultry feeds
- As an energy and starch source in organic compound feed production
- Cracked or ground in animal rations
- In feed formulations for different animal species and feeding periods
The way the product is used and its inclusion rate in the ration should be determined according to the target animal species, feeding period, the nutritional values of the other raw materials and the targeted ration characteristics.
