Somos Agro, the agricultural section of La Voz de Galicia, one of the most important newspapers in that Autonomous Community, has recently published a news article about MICOALGA-FEED.
In it, Paloma López (Hifas Veterinary), explains what are the objectives that are intended to be addressed with this initiative. In the words of the researcher, the objective of MICOALGA-FEED “is to reduce or eliminate the use of antibiotics in livestock farming from the use of residues obtained from the industrial processing of fungi and algae, contributing to the circular economy and valuing the use of functional ingredients, innovative and with high added value like these”. To do this, as mentioned in the news, new formulations of feed enriched with fungi and microalgae will be developed that will strengthen the immune system of animals.
