Trouw Nutrition and the Global Dairy Platform (GDP) have agreed to collaborate on a global pre-competitive Animal Nutrition Workstream to help support and guide research on innovative solutions to decarbonise the dairy sector. Developed as part of the Pathways to Dairy Net Zero (P2DNZ) initiative, the task force will provide leadership in the dairy nutrition space, focusing on opportunities to minimise the environmental impact of dairy production through innovative forage, feed and feeding developments and technologies. To launch this partnership, GDP and Trouw Nutrition will host two P2DNZ webinars on January 17.

We are pleased to announce that, effective January 2024, Eduardo Lopes Alberto is appointed VP Innovation and Research for Trouw Nutrition. In this role, Eduardo will continue to support the innovation agenda within Nutreco. He will be based in Switzerland and will report to David Blakemore, COO Livestock.

Nutreco's Trouw Nutrition, a leader in functional and nutritional solutions for sustainable livestock farming, reached a new milestone in its journey to help farmers operate more efficiently and sustainably: the expansion of its research campus to include a company-owned dairy facility in Sint Antonis, the Netherlands. This addition clearly underscores the company's commitment to advancing sustainable dairy farming practices.

A major discovery in the science of fatty acids has led to the development of a technology that meets calves’ nutritional requirements while also nurturing ruminant health, supporting physiological development, and enhancing calf care on the farm.

Trouw Nutrition, the livestock feed business of Nutreco, and the University of Nottingham School of Veterinary Medicine and Science are convening scientists, producers, nutritionists and veterinarians from around the globe to share emerging research and novel discoveries that will nurture the future of tomorrow’s dairy herds.

More than 300 delegates representing every segment of the feed-to-food value chain convened at AgriVision, 26-28 June, in Noordwijk aan Zee, the Netherlands, to reimagine, debate and discuss pathways for future-proofing proteins. Leaders at the forefront of industry, research and development, agri-tech, policy, and consumer behaviour shared emerging insights, moderated panel conversations, and challenged attendees to take action in order to meet a projected 70% increase in protein demand by 2050.

Trouw Nutrition launches MyMilkPrint, an easy-to-use service that allows feed advisors to calculate the environmental impact of milk at the farm level, enabling them to develop effective emission reduction strategies for dairy producers.

Today, Nutreco published its Sustainability Report 2022. It takes a candid look back at another busy year of achievements and challenges as the company progresses towards the targets set in its RoadMap 2025 sustainability strategy and helps build a more sustainable food system.

An increasing level of dairy industry research shows that these targets are feasible, according to Dr. Ermias Kebreab, Associate Dean and Professor of Animal Science at the University of California, Davis. Dr. Kebreab is one of the worlds’ leading experts in the science of reducing the carbon footprint of dairy cattle.
