Vitamins are key to animals’ health and performance, but knowing how to supplement is key. Understanding which vitamins to offer, and at which doses, can support productivity and profitability in animal operations.
In addition to supporting health and performance, the right vitamin levels can contribute to more sustainable agriculture. We at dsm-firmenich believe that the feed industry has a critical role in shaping a better world, and are guided by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
By giving every animal the right level of vitamins, we can support these four dsm-firmenich Sustainability Platforms, drawn from the SDGs:
Besides developing a complete line of high-quality vitamins, dsm-firmenich’s research and development has enabled us to establish our Vitamin Supplementation Guidelines – OVN Optimum Vitamin Nutrition®. Created in partnership with leading scientists, universities, genetics companies, independent research institutes and farmers, OVN is a tool that helps producers determine the right vitamin levels for optimum performance in their animals.
