Replacing cereals in animal feed is challenging, because besides providing nutritional value, the cereals also make the pellets stronger. Therefore, in the project ‘Pelleting in the circular agriculture’ the aim is to make high-quality feed pellets using a large share of by-products instead of cereals. The knowledge gathered during this project is disseminated via e-learning modules and workshops.

The first e-learning module contains basic knowledge on the pelleting of feed and is accessible via the webpage of AgriHolland Academy: https://agrihollandacademy.nl/product/pelleting-in-circular-agriculture/. This module is developed by the Aeres Training Centre International en the Poultry Expertise Centre in collaboration with the partners in the consortium. In an interactive way the participant of the module will get knowledge about the process of making compound feed.
The consortium from this public private partnership consist of the following partners: Wageningen University & Research, Zetadec, Agrifirm, DSM, Elanco Animal Health, Phileo by Lesaffre, Pelleting Technology Netherlands, Victam Foundation, Feed Design Lab en Aeres Training Centre International.
