Qatar based researchers say the findings of their study indicate that aquaculture feed imports from some Asian and European countries can be contaminated with moderate levels of mycotoxins.
In all regions of Europe, grass and corn silage samples contained levels of mycotoxins that would be deemed higher risk for use in dairy production, finds the Alltech 2022 European Harvest Analysis.
Alltech, in its latest mycotoxin threat analysis, compiled survey data for key feed ingredients on a regional level, and the results indicate the presence of moderate to high levels of mycotoxin risk.
Regional weather conditions contributed to varying mycotoxin risks across geographies last year, found a 2019 global mycotoxin risk analysis report by Trouw Nutrition.
