Higher dietary nutrient contributionsWe have developed an enzyme application strategy called Maximum Matrix Nutrition, which capitalises on the properties of Quantum Blue, an enhanced E. coli phytase with a high affinity for phytate, in addition to a thermostable and inhibitor-resistant xylanase, Econase XT.
Improved monitoring of raw materials and finished feedsOur range of NIR Services aims to provide a convenient and cost-effective ability to analyse feeds and raw materials, using calibrations, process control, support and analytical tools.
Stimulating the microbiome to improve productivityIncreasing understanding of fibre is presenting a new perspective on the valuable role it can play in gut health and therefore, within performance-enhancing nutritional strategies.

AB Vista to present on enzyme evolution at the 2025 AFGA Nutrition Seminar
Published Monday, 14th April 2025
Dr Mike Bedford, Research Director at AB Vista, is honoured to have been invited to speak at the prestigious event alongside key integrator industry players, including Tyson Foods, Wayne-Sanderson Farms, Perdue, Mountaire, Peco Foods, and Cal-Maine.
Dr Bedford will deliver his keynote presentation titled History of Exogenous Enzymes on 23rd April at 1:30 pm CT. The session will explore the early evolution of the feed enzyme market, including how fibre degrading enzymes have opened the door for broader ingredient acceptability and how phytase, which was originally applied to address environmental and economic challenges the Netherlands and Northern Germany has now become a pivotal enzyme on a global basis.
Dr Bedford will also reflect on what has historically slowed progress in enzyme innovation. Through specific examples, he will highlight opportunities where embracing alternative interpretations of data could have accelerated development and delivered greater returns to the industry.
AB Vista is a silver sponsor of AFGA, underscoring its commitment to knowledge sharing and collaboration in the poultry nutrition space. Alongside the technical presentation, AB Vista is looking forward to holding strategic meetings with key customers to align on programme goals and future initiatives. These science-led discussions continue to help AB Vista innovate its solution offerings to further drive performance, profitability and sustainability in the feed industry.
The AFGA is a non-profit trade association representing every segment of the feed and grain industries in Alabama. It was formed in 1983 from a merger between the Alabama Feed Association and the Alabama Grain Dealers Association.

Online Feed Fibre Calculator
Calculate the percentage of dietary fibre in your feed
Our calculator is designed for nutritionists and uses averages of global raw materials to calculate the dietary fibre content (plus other more in-depth fibre parameters) of finished animal feed. These parameters are available within AB Vista’s Dietary Fibre analysis service (part of our NIR service).
