Medi Lab S.A. carries out a full range of microbiological analyzes covering the requirements of European and national legislation, in accordance with Regulations (EC) No. 2073/2005 and its amendments (Regulation. 1881/2006, 1441/2007).
According to Reg. 183/2005 and JMD 340668/2008, feed production facilities are required, among other analyzes, to include annual testing of feed mixers to ensure the homogeneity of their products.
ong term use of preparations for supplementary feeding of animals aiming specific nutritional purposes, with a high concentration of minerals, inevitably contain traces of arsenic, cadmium or lead that exceed the established maximum limits for individual heavy metals complementary feed.
Certain fungal species produce toxins called mycotoxins, which in high concentrations in food and feed can cause poisoning and other problems.
Chemical feed analysis combined with monitoring and result interpretation are necessary conditions in order to achieve necessary nutrition of farm animals and derived from these products.
Second concern, examination of the plant leaves that constitute each culture, shows the percentage of nutrients absorbed by plant tissues.
This examination is obligatory for proper crop monitoring as soil nutrients and trace elements does not always reach all plant tissue.
Leaf analysis examination provides accuracy in counting all the nutrients and trace elements contained in the plant.
First concern for a good crop is knowledge of the composition of soil nutrients.
Soil’s volume is approximately equally devided into solid constituents (inorganic and organic), while the other half by air and water.
Air and water are located between the grains of inorganic materials.
