Feed Phosphate

Calcium and phosphorus sources for the feed industry.

Feed Phosphate
A closer look at the product

Feed Phosphate
at a glance.

Feed phosphates are inorganic mineral sources used as phosphorus and calcium inputs in compound feeds and mineral mixtures. Types such as DCP, MDCP and MCP differ in phosphorus content and solubility profile.

Complex A produces DCP 18% P, MDCP 20% and 21% P, and MCP 22.7% P. The final technical specification, quality certificate and suitability for use are reviewed product by product.

Animal nutrition and mineral product applications
Animal nutrition and mineral product applications
01

Poultry feed

Different sources are evaluated in line with mineral balance and digestible phosphorus requirements.

02

Compound feed

An ingredient that helps establish the calcium-phosphorus balance in the formulation.

03

Mineral premixes

Particle structure, nutrient concentration and inclusion rate are taken into account.

04

Poultry rations

Sources such as DCP, MCP or MDCP are evaluated in the feed formula for their contribution of digestible phosphorus.

05

Mineral balance in laying hens

The calcium-phosphorus relationship is linked to skeletal health and eggshell performance.

06

Fattening and compound feed production

Mineral requirements by animal species, bioavailability and phosphorus supplied by raw materials are calculated together.

07

Ration optimisation

To avoid an excess phosphorus load, total and digestible phosphorus and environmental losses are considered together.

Technical evaluation

Choosing the right product
starts with the right questions.

In product selection, we consider not only the name or area of use, but also your production conditions and specification requirements.

Granule structure, limits for undesirable substances and documentation requests

Are DCP and MCP the same product?

No. The chemical structure and nutritional properties of the phosphate differ; the appropriate type for a feed formulation should be determined by a specialist.

How do DCP, MCP and MDCP differ?

They are evaluated in terms of chemical structure, total phosphorus, calcium content and digestibility.

Is the total phosphorus percentage alone sufficient?

No. Bioavailability, impurity level, solubility and the animal's ration requirements should be evaluated together.
