In feed production, it is not only the volume that matters, but also the nutritional quality and energy efficiency of the ingredients. Using high-energy raw materials is key to improving animal growth, health and performance. At Alper Krup, we select and formulate the best feed ingredients focused on maximizing digestibility and reducing cost per kilo produced.
What do we mean by energy efficiency in a feed?
An energy-efficient feed is one that provides a high amount of useful energy per unit of product, with a high rate of digestion and absorption. This allows animals to grow faster, stay healthy and make better use of each ration, reducing waste and increasing profitability for the producer.
Key ingredients for a high performance formulation
At Alper Krup we work with ingredients that stand out for their energetic and functional profile:
Highly digestible fatty acids.
Fatty acids, especially medium chain fatty acids (C8, C10, C12), are a fast and efficient source of energy. They improve fat digestion, reduce intestinal stress and promote more uniform growth, especially in young animals.
Soy lecithin
Acts as a natural emulsifier and improves the absorption of lipid nutrients. Replaces crude soybean oil with multiple advantages: higher efficiency, reduction of dust in the feed, better feed conversion and extra choline and vitamin E supply.
Refined vegetable oils
Oils such as fractionated palm oil or coconut oil provide concentrated and stable energy. They are ideal for feeds in growth or lactation phases, where energy needs are higher.
Advantages of an optimized energy formulation
-
Improved feed conversion rate
-
Increases birth and weaning weights
-
Reduces digestive and hepatic problems
-
Reduces the need for pharmacological additives
-
Provides nutritional stability under stress conditions
At Alper Krup we combine technical expertise, market knowledge and quality raw materials to help you formulate more efficient, sustainable and profitable feeds.
