Developing nutritional plans for ruminants presents a number of challenges which requires a precise and accurate means to evalute various feeds and forages. Add to that the geo-political realities of working in the West Bank and sourcing quality products can somethimes be a challenge.
Professor Vagnoni had experience with ANKOM products in a number of his past professional activities and knew he needed a products that would be easy-to-use and easy and maintain. The ANKOM 200 Fiber Analyzer satisfied all his needs and allowed him to move from a need to analyze a large number of samples for a particular project to a transition to using the system in a pure educational setting.
The ANKOM200 Fiber Analyzers have been subjected to rigorous testing over a broad range of sample types and are listed in the NFTA and AAFCO check sample programs. Results can be determined for Acid Detergent Fiber, Neutral Detergent Fiber, and Crude Fiber for all feeds and forages.
