Dicalcium phosphate
Mineral straight feed containing 21 %calcium and 16 %phosphorus. Dicalcium phosphate is a highly available calcium and phosphorus carrier obtained from inorganic compounds. In animal nutrition, the product is used for the targeted supplementation of the feed with the important quantity elements calcium and phosphorus. The contents of these two elements in the individual plant feeds are not sufficient to cover the needs of various animal species and therefore require targeted supplementation.
