Superior Green Feed

Daily Supply of Fresh Sprouts for Livestock Farms & Feed Centers

Product Overview

The Challenge: Continued Availability of Livestock Feed

One of the biggest global challenges today is providing enough protein to a growing world population. A key part of meeting this challenge is producing sustainable livestock feed to ensure an adequate supply of nutritious milk and meat.

To meet the rising demand for protein, the global livestock industry is growing by over 15% annually. Yet decreasing land and water resources, coupled with increasing animal husbandry costs, make it ever more difficult for livestock farms to feed their animals in a profitable manner.

Countries with little or no feed supply, often due to extreme weather or insufficient land or water, are forced to import feed, further driving up livestock costs and driving down local food security.

The Solution: Superior Green Feed

Developed by Hoshen FoodTech, Superior Green Feed is freshly sprouted fodder supplied daily to livestock growers. The sprouts fully grow in 7-day cycles within indoor climate-controlled facilities designed and operated by HFT.

Regardless of season or weather conditions, Superior Green Feed ensures year-round supply of fresh sprouts tailored to the nutritional needs of local livestock. The sprouts are delivered daily in a ready-to-feed format according to customer preferences.

Leveraging HFT’s unique aeroponics expertise and R&D know-how, Superior Green Feed is a highly nutritious, environmentally friendly and cost-effective feed. Superior Green Feed empowers livestock growers to ensure a daily supply of nutritious sprouts while driving up productivity and profitability.

Use Cases

Superior Green Feed is ideal for dairy farms and livestock fattening farms requiring nutritious and sustainable sprouted fodder for cows, sheep, goats, pigs and camels.
