SustainabilityPioneering the use of residual flows in animal feed
As part of its sustainability strategy, De Heus aims to increase the use of residual flows, by-products and food waste. By taking the residual nutrients contained in by-products from human food production and incorporating them in our animal feed, we not only conserve scarce resources, we also stimulate circularity. While we use residual flows as ingredients in our compound feed, a significant number of farmers are using increasing volumes of residual flows in liquid feed. Ruud Bens, Product Manager Liquid Feed, tells us what progress De Heus has made in supporting farmers in the use of residual flows in liquid feed and the prospects for the future.
