The MICOALGA-FEED Operational Group, of which FEUGA is representative, has published its first dissemination materials: the infographic, and leaflet of the project. The aim of both of them is to introduce this innovation project among the agents of the agri-food value chain, and the general public.
The main objective of the initiative is to reduce the use of antibiotics in aviculture through a natural origin food based on fungi, and microalgae. Based on the World Health Organisation’s (WHO) initiative “One Health”, MICOALGA-FEED will develop new feed formulations which, supplemented with fungi, and microalgae, will reinforce local immunity, and benefit saprophytic intestinal flora. The project, in addition to FEUGA, is comprised of Grupo Uvesa, Neoalgae, and Hifas Veterinary.
The infographic shows, shortly, and directly, the idea behind MICOALGA-FEED, emphasizing the objectives, and expected results of the project, as well as the starting point in which the initiative arises. On the other h, and, the leaflet deepens in these aspects, providing a wider, and more detailed vision of the innovation project. Together, they are an excellent way to discover the project.
Both materials are available in Spanish, and English:
