Exclusive Open Day offers on the full range of new and used KEENAN diet feeders. Attendees will have the opportunity to view KEENAN’s complete range of diet feeders and speak with a member of the sales team on the day about KEENAN's new service contracts.
Alltech’s broad spectrum lab-based mycotoxin analysis
More and more evidence is highlighting the negative impact of the multi-mycotoxin challenge on animal health and productivity. Utilising advanced mass spectrometry techniques, Alltech 37+ is designed to reveal the presence of multiple mycotoxins in raw materials, compound feeds and TMRs.
With a network of testing laboratories across North America, Europe and Asia, Alltech can support feed and livestock producers with developing a sampling and testing program that is most suited to their individual needs.
Linked to Alltech’s Mycotoxin Management Portal, producers can easily view and assess their results, and with the support of the local Alltech team can ensure any necessary actions can be implemented to maximise feed quality and protect the health and performance of livestock.

KEENAN launched its updated MechFiber+ range of paddle feeders two years ago. Midland’s farm Cows.ie bought the first 28m3 machine and it hasn’t had a day off in two years.

From the first of January 2024, Alltech and KEENAN have become more closely integrated.
Cathal McCormack, Alltech's country manager comments:
“This is a significant business change and one that will see it grow and develop KEENAN in a more efficient and integrated way. Housing KEENAN within the Alltech structure means that we are bringing the KEENAN customer closer; we will have a shorter communication chain and we can respond quicker to farmers’ needs and opportunities.”
With increased consumer demand for low-cost protein and a growth forecast of 1.5-2% for the global poultry market (Rabobank 2023), poultry producers will continue looking to optimise production efficiency. Multi-enzyme complexes can be used to enhance nutrient use and reduce feed costs.
Alltech’s latest annual feed survey found global volumes holding roughly steady, with the 142 countries surveyed having produced an estimated 1.29 billion metric tonnes of feed in 2023, only 0.2% less than 2022. The company’s 2024 Agri-Food Outlook, released yesterday, detailed the regional and sector-level trends behind that figure.
In a year marked by volatility, Alltech's Agri-Food Outlook for 2023 provides a comprehensive overview of the intricate dynamics shaping the feed production industry worldwide.
Analysis of global pig feed conducted by the Alltech 37+ analytical laboratory reveals the ubiquitous nature of these unwanted contaminants. 100% of samples contained mycotoxins, with an average of 8.1 mycotoxins per sample (284 samples, June 2023 to January 2024). The presence of these mycotoxins in feed can have negative effects on the growth, feed intake, feed efficiency, gut health and immunity of pigs. We typically associate animal impacts with higher concentrations of mycotoxins, i.e.
Global animal feed production remained steady in 2023 at 1.29 billion metric tons (BMT), but was down slightly, 2.6 million metric tons (MMT) — or 0.2% — from 2022’s estimates, according to the
