The livestock sector is a pillar of the global food system, and supports the livelihoods and food security of almost 1.3 billion people. Hence, the animal husbandry industry if of significance all over the world. Despite the growing trend of plant-based industry, it is crucial to emphasise that the global demand for dairy and meat is also growing extensively.
To ensure adequate dairy and meat production, providing appropriate animal feed is necessary. Animal feed includes traditional feed, compound feed and premixes.
United Group of Food Consultants is a manufacturer and exporter of flavours for the animal feed industry.
The flavours are in concentrated forms, and provide aroma and flavour to an unpleasant feed, making it more palatable. In case of changes in the feed formulation, the flavours prevent animals from rejecting the feed.
Each animal species has different preferences for flavours:
- The fruity flavours encourage piglets to eat more like raspberries, strawberries, apples or cherries.
- The herbal flavours are widely used for ruminants, cattle, sheep and rabbits, like fennel, thyme, grass, molasses, aniseed etc.
- The non-veg flavours like chicken, fish, beef, and meat are attractive for pet food.
