ingredients and culinary expertise currently available through ConAgra Foods, Cargill and CHS.

up with Spanish animal nutrition specialist Andres Pintaluba to

Specialities, the feed specialities division of Andres Pintaluba, and to
Portuguese customers by subsidiary company Vetalmex.
With moulds and mycotoxins playing havoc on stored grains in 2012, Alltech has launched a scheme to tackle the problem. The Five-Point Mycotoxin Management Program is designed to
reduce risk and improve safety, while ensuring that mycotoxins do not
limit livestock performance and profitability, or pose a threat to the
food chain.
