Comprehensive Animal Feed Testing Services
High-quality livestock feed is essential for optimal growth, maximum yield, and animal health. Understanding exact feed composition empowers farmers to optimize feeding strategies and boost profitability.
Improve Livestock Health And Productivity With Advanced Feed Analysis
Nutritional accuracy is vital whether you raise livestock for milking, laying, or slaughter. Qplus provides scientific analysis to ensure your feed meets exact animal requirements and health standards.
Rapid Nutritional Profiling (Infrared & Wet Chemistry)
Advanced technology is used alongside wet chemistry to provide rapid, cost-effective analysis of protein, energy, and mineral content in fodder and feed ingredients
Mycotoxin & Contaminant Screening
Safety assessment focuses on detecting toxic fungal metabolites (mycotoxins) and chemical impurities that can undermine livestock performance, lower yield, and contribute to health complications
Customized Feed Additive Recommendations
Laboratory test results inform expert dietary guidance for precision feed formulation and the selection of corrective additives that support balanced animal nutrition
Targeted Feed Optimization For Your Enterprise:
- Dairy Production: Optimize energy and protein ratios for higher milk yields.
- Poultry Operations: Enhance egg production and shell strength for layer operations.
- Meat Livestock: Accelerate weight gain and feed conversion efficiency for slaughter stock.
Our feed analysis services
Quality animal feed means better milk, eggs and meat as well as happier, healthier livestock. Know what you are feeding your livestock for:
Food Mineral & Nutrient Analysis
QPlus provides mineral and nutrient analysis for silage, hay, and other dry feed used across a wide range of livestock species. The resulting report presents a proximate analysis of phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, sulphur, iron, manganese, boron, copper, molybdenum, and zinc, together with measurements of energy, fibre, digestibility (NCGD), oil, protein, sugar, starch, ash, and dry matter content.
Aflatoxin Tests in Feed
Aflatoxins are toxins produced by fungi and may naturally occur in human and animal feedstuffs. They can be found in maize (corn), cereals, peanuts, cottonseed, and tree nuts.
High aflatoxin levels can be harmful to both humans and animals. Consumption of contaminated feed may lead to toxin exposure and residues in animal products such as milk, eggs, or muscle, while also contributing to weight loss, reproductive problems, reduced growth, and, in severe cases, death. Aflatoxins are difficult to eliminate from feed and can withstand many processing treatments.
Testing animal feed for aflatoxins helps protect livestock health and supports the safety of products intended for consumers.
