Research background

Research background in our company is composed of a team of experts – nutritionists, veterinarians, development and technology specialists. We are partners with many world universities and institutions in the field of animal nutrition. Together with them we participate in special projects. In regard of extended laboratory background we do our own laboratory testing. Practical verification of our results can be also done in select breedings. Our goal is always a close interconnection between the theory and practice.


We carry out special training and workshops, participate in development of new products at colleges and in other institutions dealing with animal nutrition. Long term testing, including tests directly in breeding, always precedes the adding of select ingredients and changing of recipes. All changes that are suggested and verified by our research department are based on constant modernization and improvement of our product recipes. The new brands that come from our production have to go through a long series of tests and are continuously improved.
