Innovation research on the feeding value of cereal grains and its improvement (GrainUp)
Collaborative Project
Contract period:
01.06.2011
- 31.05.2014
Coordinating institution:
Department of Animal Nutrition
Objectives are to characterize the nutritional value of the current cereal grains with innovative methods in animal experiments and to develop comprehensive and rapid methods for the assessment of grain quality in both feed industry and plant breeding. In addition, effects of feed processing on animal health and impacts of climate change on the quality of grains will be investigated. The studies significantly contribute to a more efficient use of energy, protein and phosphorus from cereal grains and a reduced excretion of environmentally relevant substances.
