Addressing the feed industry's most complex challenges
BASF Animal Nutrition and trinamiX have joined forces to introduce trinamiX' Mobile NIR Spectroscopy Solution to the feed industry. The collaboration brings together BASF's animal nutrition knowledge and trinamiX' expertise in mobile NIR spectroscopy to address one of the feed industry's most complex challenges.

Knowledge of the nutritional content and quality of feed material is critical for ensuring that farmed livestock is fed optimally and efficiently.
This starts with the delivery and processing of quality ingredients at feed mills and ends with precisely formulated diets on the farm. With our Mobile NIR Spectroscopy Solution, customers receive on-the-spot insights wherever feed ingredients and raw materials are moved, processed or fed.

Our Mobile NIR Spectroscopy Solution covers a broad range of applications:
- Quality checks of ingredients and raw materials processed at feed mills and integrators
- Precise formulation of diets on the farm
- Constant monitoring of feed and raw materials at farms
