Animal Nutrition

In the compound feed sector for animals, you can find Finançor Agro-Alimentar, which
provides complete nutritional solutions for producers of various animal species.

Feed formulation is crucial for the sustainability of animal production processes, namely in terms of resource optimization, reducing environmental impacts and promoting animal health and welfare.

However, it is evident that knowledge related to animal nutrition is still scarce when all phases and specifications of manufacturing processes are observed. This is an area with unexplored opportunities, namely in relation to circular economy. In fact, it is estimated that in the European Union, 96% of animal feed ingredients are of "non-food quality", that is, not suitable for human consumption. At the global level, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), this figure reaches 86% of humans. This means that sub-products of the food industry cannot only compete with the availability of resources for human nutrition, but can also be a source of nutrients for animals, reducing food waste and the generation of waste.

In addition to compound feed for cattle, which should be provided as a supplement to the traditional fresh grass from Azorean pastures, Finançor's vast range of animal nutrition products stands out, particularly the line of dairy cattle feed. These are widely recognized for their quality and high nutritional value, contributing significantly to the sustainability of a sector that is one of the pillars of agricultural and livestock activity in the region. Additionally, Finançor also offers various complete and complementary compound feeds for other animals, such as pigs, poultry, goats, sheep, horses and rabbits.
