Unlocking Soybean Meal, NOVUS Shows the Value of Protease
Reports suggest genetic advances focused on improving soybean yield have resulted in reduced nutrient composition. At the same time anti-nutritional factors like trypsin inhibitor (TI), impact the protein access and digestibility of soybean meal, which can ultimately negatively impact the gut health of the animals that rely on soybeans for food. For those reasons, now is the time for nutritionists and producers alike to look toward intelligent nutrition solutions like enzymes to help unlock nutrients in soybean meal, leading to feed cost savings while supporting performance. In this interview with Feedinfo, Feed Enzymes Global Leader José Otávio B. Sorbara, Ph.D., shares NOVUS’ research on soybean meal quality around the world and the feed additives the industry can use to optimize this essential protein source.
