Alltech spreading throughout the globe to research and solve problems in agriculture. Alltech has been successfully collaborating with top academic institutions through research alliances in order to find long-term answers to the key issues facing the agricultural industry by using sound sciences and educating the next generation of scientist. This research alliance follows the inking of major agreements with the University of Kentucky and Nofima, the Norwegian Institute of Food, Fisheries and Aquaculture Research, earlier this year.Those are the words from Alltech spokesperson Susanna Elliot who points out that “China is potentially the largest single market for Alltech and has attracted the best resources from the company. The research alliances at each university will focus on specific key areas that address emerging challenges to animal agriculture in China. Examples include:
- Mycotoxin testing methodology development and application
- New feed additive evaluation and solution development
- Application of animal metabolic chamber in the control of greenhouse gas emission
- Nutrigenomics in yellow feather chicken
- Programmed Nutrition on the regulation of meat quality
This strategic, long-term partnership will be critical for the consistency of future scientific studies and will be the basis for successful breakthrough in scientific research. These alliances are expected to be the catalyst for future advances in agricultural technologies.
