Nutrition Guide - Introduction

The Microvit™ Nutrition Guide provides a range of standard recommendations for vitamin supplementation by indicating a minimum and maximum level that is commonly added to animal feed. The Guide contains recommendations for dairy, beef, swine, poultry, and other species as well. The levels of supplementation were determined by a review of scientific literature involving nearly 600 references and an extensive survey of feed manufacturers. The ranges presented in the Microvit™ Nutrition Guide allow you to compare your vitamin supplementation level with others commonly used in the industry.


An interactive version of the Microvit™ Nutrition Guide is also available on compact disc. This version allows vitamin supplementation levels to be determined for specific anima) production systems and production targets according to the main factors that influence vitamin requirements.
