In 2008, Nutreco purchased Biofaktory, a company in the Tsjech Republic. One of my tasks in 2009 was to integrate the ruminant world of Biofaktory into the ruminant world of Nutreco. A nice task. We trained the ruminant staff on Farm Analysis, Cow Signals and ration calculation using the Rumenac System. We also introduced into the Tsjech market newly designed mineralmixtures under the brand “MaxCare”. One of the key differentiators in the Maxcare Minerals are much lower P levels and much higher Mg levels. Much better for cows and the planet! Last but for sure not least, also CalFix and the Fresh Cow Concept were introduced.
