Animal Nutrition & Forage Production RESEARCH
Who we are
Our research groups are oriented towards new challenges in animal nutrition and forage production. We solve real-world problems around modern agricultural processes and green sustainable economy. We focus on basic as well as applied research in the areas of animal nutrition, smart technologies in animal production, antibitoic alternatives, mycotoxin elimination, silage and forage quality. Our research groups are open to collaboration with all companies and research institutions. We offer long-term experience in R&D as well research facilities.
