Tannins and livestock products

Ruminant and poultry feed and zootechnical additives
The use of plant tannins in animal husbandry is widely documented in the veterinary scientific literature. Tannins are substances of a polyphenolic nature present in varying content in almost all plant species, from which they are obtained by water extraction and subsequent vacuum concentration from the raw material, which depending on the case may be the wood, bark, fruits or leaves of different plants.
The chemical and organoleptic characteristics that make tannins interesting for animal husbandry are their ability to complex proteins, astringency, and antiparasitic and disinfectant functions. They can be used in cattle and ruminant feed in general, as well as in poultry farming, and also in pig farming
