Agri-food products
Fats are commonly used in feed for monogastrics and ruminants due to their high energy concentration and their positive effects on the animals’ productivity.
High percentages of free fatty acids, polyunsaturated fatty acids and free fats inhibit microbial action to a certain degree and undermine the digestion of nutrients in the rumen, particularly of the fibrous fraction.
