The manufacturer’s technical data sheets do not give dosages. “Figures based on analyses, representing an average”: as these are fermented feeds made from natural raw materials, composition may vary. EP200 is intended for pigs and poultry. Target species: those stated in the manufacturer’s technical data sheets. The technical data here are those of the data sheets.

How it works and sources

The values are those of the manufacturer’s technical data sheets, per kg of product as fed. The chart compares the three products on the chosen parameter, with the axis starting at zero; for amino acids you can choose between total content and SID digestible content for pigs or poultry. The table highlights the highest value in each row.
