Feed International - April/May 2015 - 31
| 31 Metrology and Standardization, confirmed that neither they - nor anyone else in Moldova - checks feed for the presence of GMOs. The Institute of Food Technologies of Moldova also confirmed that it is not dealing with such issues. What is the reason for this lack of technical documentation? According to Ilya Trombitsky, head of the international environmental association, Eco-TIRAS, "Safety inspection of a genetically modified organism today is worth about 1 million euros," and the country is not willing to invest that amount of money in the improvement of sanitary control. Meanwhile, authorities promise to keep a strict stance on the GMO issue, even despite the pressures of domestic and foreign feed producers. "Of course we understand all the economic advantages of the use of genetically modified products, but we cannot sacrifice the health of consumers in favor of the profitability of individual producers," says Valeriu Starotesku, a representative from the National Commission on Biological safety. Generating testing knowledge, investments With the reopening of public debates on the need to approve GMOs in feed production, the country's government promised to not only keep the ban in place, but also to intensify the fight with the "shadow market" of compound feed with GMOs by enlisting the aid and experience of foreign entities. The preliminary plans by the Agricultural Ministry indicate that, initially, it should create Profitable moisture management - with the multi-online NIR system. Wouldn't you like to have absolute control of quality, in spite of the fluctuating moisture content of your feedstuffs? With the multi-online NIR system as an integrated process solution, you can measure and regulate the moisture level without interrupting the process. Precise measurement with 0.3 % standard deviation forms the basis for significantly reducing the safety buffer, giving you assurance of a constantly high level of product quality as well as higher profit margins.

Extreme accuracy of measurement with just 0.3 % standard deviation forms the basis for minimizing the safety buffer. Lower energy costs. Reduced mechanical energy input in the pelleting process lowers power consumption and reduces energy costs. Integrated complete solution. Water /additive system for regulating moisture levels directly in the batch mixer. Robust. Measuring probe is kept apart from sensitive microelectronics (in separate control cabinet). Reliable measurement. Feedstuff-specific calibration without any need to worry about interference factors. Innovations for a better world.
