A Network to bring you tomorrow’s solutions today.

  • Animal nutrition is a broad field that goes beyond the major ingredients and performance parameters that most Indian institutes focus on.
  • Nutritional studies rely very much on the other studies (chemical, physical, immunological, biochemical, behavioral, physiological, microbiological, molecular, statistical and genetics).
  • Lack of facility to conduct trials on these micro ingredients in India.
  • Lack of facilities in institutes that can measure the acceptable levels of pesticide, toxins, heavy metals in feed ingredients.
  • The participation of research fellows and students in international conferences, journals, lack of exposure and recognition for their work.
