Digestible phosphorus

EvaPig® includes digestible phosphorus values for raw materials used in pelleted and mashed feeds.

The calculation of digestible phosphorus from complete feeds takes into account:

• The presence of endogenous phytase
• The addition of exogenous phytase
• The physical form of the diet (pellet or mash)

The amount of digestible phosphorus depends on the amount of phytase and on its biological activity (expressed as g of released digestible P per 500 IU of phytase)
