HOW does a modified potato starch begin❓ At KMC we produce modified potato starch for many food purposes. Have you ever wondered how a new modified starch comes into existence? Søren Juhl Hansen has been a Research & Development Chemist at KMC since 2006, and he plays a large part in this. We asked him about the process and his job in general. This is what he told us. - When we develop new starches, we make small amounts with certain properties in our R&D lab. The new starches are then tested in actual foods in our Application department. Those that turn out well proceed to our pilot plant and are made in larger quantities. - This is to ensure they retain their properties when produced on a larger scale. It also gives us the opportunity to test larger amounts in our Application department, or even at a customer’s facility. If the results are still satisfactory, we prepare the new modified starch for production and launch. - The work I do is very varied. I enjoy seeing a new product travel all the way from the lab to our production plant. Being in contact with many people, from the R&D lab to our factory, ensures that my job is never dull. My tasks are both administrative and practical, which I like a lot. - My biggest challenge could be that I am never done! Meaning that the more I dive into a subject, the more questions arise. - This could be the reason I have been here for so long. There is always more to learn 📖 #WorkingAtKMC #FoodInnovation #ModifiedPotatoStarch 🥔

🌾After last year’s historically poor harvest, among the worst in 30 years, we are now approaching a harvest that is the most important in a long time. Lantmännen's forecast for this year’s Swedish harvest amounts to 5.4 million tonnes of grain. That is to be considered as an average harvest, compared to the past several years. Summarized across the country, the very wet autumn, winter, and spring significantly delayed spring sowing. This was followed by early summer drought, which collectively has negatively impacted the spring-sown grains. The autumn-sown crops have managed the conditions better and show potential for normal yield levels. Sweden's largest crop, ley, has thrived very well in the moist conditions, and ley harvests are of good volume and quality in large parts of the country.​ 👉Learn more: https://lnkd.in/dDyJ9Xvu --- #harvest2024 #lantmännen #harvestforecast2024​

Hortiherttua, a leading greenhouse grower based in Finland, faced the challenge of how to increase crop yield without increasing energy consumption. Understanding that a 1% increment in PPFD results in a 1% increase in yield of fruiting crops, they sought innovative lighting solutions that could provide the increased light intensity without increasing energy usage. In partnership with Helle-Tech & Bloem, a pioneering provider of adjustable light engine technology, Hortiherttua embarked on a journey to revolutionise their greenhouse operations.

With summer on its way, have you prepared your cow sheds with proper ventilation? Hot weather can have a devastating impact on dairy cows and beef cattle. Dairy cows have an optimal thermal temperature of between -13°C and +25°C and a body temperature of between 38.4°C and 39.1°C. Going above this threshold results in the animal feeling stressed and needing to divert energy that could otherwise be directed towards increasing yields to lowering body temperature.

We all want the best possible return while investing as little as possible. In poultry production, feed is an inescapable production cost. In recent years raw material costs have risen drastically highlighting the price volatility of key ingredients which themselves have been heavily influenced by several factors. Find out from @AndrewCatlett, how low can you go? What is the optimal broiler diet nutrient density in times of economic pressure without impacting performance? https://loom.ly/VXNq8-4

Birds that are dead on arrival at the processing plant are a great example of maximum inefficiency. Significant resources have been invested to raise a bird, only to have it yield no return.   "Dead on arrivals are also an important key welfare indicator,” writes Ken Opengart, DVM, PhD, 3 Birds Consulting, in an article for Modern Poultry.  “And although they can’t always be prevented, it’s important to monitor and take action when the incidence of dead on arrival trends in the wrong direction."

Paunch and manure processing presents a challenge for most beef processors. The variance in content often containing rocks, straw, twine and other materials can jam traditional grinders. Vogelsang’s XRipper® Twin-Shaft Grinder is the perfect answer to solids reduction of paunch for standard transfer, biogas processing. It’s counter rotating rotors have sharp tips to grab, slice and shred material like rocks, straw and twine without jamming or ragging, cutting them down to workable size. https://bit.ly/4dufBls
