Animal Feed

After the bulk algae biomass is processed for Omega 3 oil and Astaxanthin, the remaining dry algae cake serves as a nutritious and easily digestible feed for livestock – cattle, pigs, chicken and goats. It is price competitive with other feeds, environmentally friendly to produce and better than corn, which is difficult for cattle to digest.

When algae cake is mixed with trace amounts of Astaxanthin, livestock show increases in fertility rates. It has also demonstrated impressive health benefits as outlined below.
