Enhancing quality through knowledge, experience and innovation
Quality matters. Using feed ingredients and raw materials of varying quality can significantly impact animal performance, the environment, and overall costs.
By focusing on quality, we not only improve animal performance and support better health and welfare, but also reduce the use of raw materials, leading to more sustainable practices.
Our extensive range of products and services empowers producers to make informed decisions that lead to better quality feed, improved animal welfare, and enhanced sustainability

More knowledge of raw materials for better quality feed
Producing profitable animal protein is reliant on good quality feed. In fact, up to 70% of production costs come from feed. In turn, manufacture of cost-effective, correctly balanced feed is impossible without a detailed knowledge of raw material quality. Evonik’s AMINONIR® analytics tools provide detailed insights into raw material quality in real time, allowing producers to optimize their feed formulations effectively and economically.
More feed quality to optimize nutritional benefits and control costs
Since feed is such a major cost driver, reducing expensive nutrients like energy and amino acids offers a clear opportunity for savings. Quality of feed needs to be assessed according to its ability to provide the right nutrients at the right levels to ensure healthy and productive livestock. Evonik directly supports this, with analytical tools like AMINONIR® and dietary formulation tools such as AMINOSpec® that provide valuable guidance on feed design.
Feeding strategies to improve welfare and nutritional outcomes
Understanding the target market for livestock products is key to designing feeding strategies that maximize efficiency and ensure the highest quality of meat, milk, and eggs that meet consumer requirements. This understanding is the foundation of Evonik’s rationing tools, which enable superior diet design and consistent animal performance. These tools integrate seamlessly with our portfolio of amino acids like MetAMINO®, Biolys® and ThreAMINO®, as well as functional feed additives for gut health.
Less environmental impact through best practices
Most of us share a common goal: to protect and improve the environment. While agriculture is often cast as the villain and a source of environmental pressure, it also holds the key to positive change. Through collaboration, we can reduce the impact on soil, water and air – while still producing high-quality food. In fact, with the right tools and knowledge, we can even begin to reverse some of the damage caused in the past. Get in touch with the Evonik team to discover how our solutions can make this a reality, and reduce the environmental impact of livestock operations.
