Hansen (Denmark), a cooperation of Feed Innovation Services, ForFarmers, Ropapharm International, Speerstra Feed Ingredients en Valacon Dairy and a cooperation of Orffa Additives en Cono Cheese makers. Included in the research projects are also the scientists from Wageningen University (NL), Copenhagen University (Denmark) and Instituto de Ganaderia de Montana (Spain) will participate.
