Knowledge of De Oiled Rice Bran!

  1. What is De-Oiled Rice Bran (DORB)? De-Oiled Rice Bran (DORB) is an important ingredient used in animal feed. This guide will show you how to easily identify fresh DORB and prevent spoilage to keep your animals healthy and safe. So, let's look at the primary threat to your DORB's quality: fungal contamination. 2. The Hidden Danger: How Good DORB Goes Bad The biggest threat to DORB quality is fungal contamination. When conditions are right, this hidden danger can quickly turn a valuable feed ingredient into a harmful substance. Moisture is the Trigger: Moisture creates the perfect environment for fungal spores to germinate and grow within the DORB. Fungus is the Problem: As fungus multiplies, it generates heat, creates foul odors, and releases harmful toxins that are dangerous for livestock to consume. Knowing the signs of spoilage is your first and most important line of defense. 3. Your 3-Step Quality Check: Using Your Senses Your own senses are powerful tools for a quic...

 The quality of the food on our tables is inextricably linked to the quality of what our farm animals eat. A common but surprisingly volatile ingredient in this chain is De-Oiled Rice Bran (DORB). While it may look like a simple, inert powder, a silent battle against biology and physics rages within every bag. Here are four counter-intuitive truths about the hidden forces that must be managed to keep this staple ingredient safe and effective. 1. Fungus Doesn't Just Spoil Feed, It Heats It From the Inside Out Fungal contamination is a primary threat to DORB quality, thriving where moisture and organic material meet. But the real twist is that fungus doesn't just passively spoil the feed. As it grows, it actively generates its own heat through metabolic processes, causing the entire mass of DORB to warm up from within. This turns a seemingly stable product into a living, heat-producing ecosystem. The consequences are not just spoilage; they are a critical threat to animal health....
