Supporting UK malting Barley with Improved market intelligence on grain skinning
Feed and food safety / 3804 / Published: 23 July 2013
The project will use targeted field screening trials to improve our understanding of the main risk factors. It will collate data from 4 harvests, 2012 – 2015, as well as looking at historical harvest data.
Predicting wheat quality for broilers
Feed and food safety / 3805 / Published: 23 July 2013
The aims of this project are to develop a validated NIRS tool to predict a) the nutritive value of wheat for broilers and, b) mycotoxin and microdochium levels in wheat
Expanding the knowledge base to increase the use of home grown rapeseed meal and DDGS in diets for pigs and poultry in the UK
Feed and food safety / 3813 / Published: 23 July 2013
The project aims to develop a digestibility coefficient database and near infrared (NIR) prediction equations for the digestibility of energy, protein and amino acids of OSR meal in pigs and broiler chickens.
Home grown oilseed rape meal and oilseed rape products as protein sources for pigs and poultry
Feed and food safety / 3812 / Published: 23 July 2013
The project aims to assess the nutritional value and contamination levels of current OSR meal varieties and products. Biochemical analysis of current OSR meal varieties will be related to their nutritional value and upper inclusion limits for poultry and pig diets.
Effect of sulphur fertilisation on the acrylamide-forming potential of wheat
Feed and food safety / 217-0001 / Published: 23 July 2013
The project aims to provide data on free amino acid levels and acrylamide-forming potential in wheat grain produced with different levels of sulphur fertilisation – Alchemy, Viscount, Oakley Panorama and Victor Oakley.
Improving winter malting barley quality and developing an understanding of the interactions of introgressions with genetic background
Feed and food safety / 3776 / Published: 3 July 2013
The project aims to utilise knowledge gained from a previous project to introgress specific genetic loci associated with malting quality from the spring into the winter crop, in order to bring the overall quality level of the winter crop up to that of the spring.
Mycotoxin Survey of DON levels in Recommended List Wheat and Barley Varieties 2012
Feed and food safety / 3798 / Published: 3 July 2013
The project aims to determine the impact variety, region and fungicide treatment has on levels of the mycotoxin DON on wheat and barley grain in the 2012 season where levels of Fusarium head blight are high.
Analysis of the genetic and environmental factors influencing grain quality of milling oats
Feed and food safety / 3774 / Published: 27 December 2012
The market value of the oats is determined by its hectolitre weight and failure to meet the minimum weight (50kg/hl) can lead to the crop being rejected or reduced in value. However, relatively little is known of its physical basis, and results can be affected by growing conditions and on the measurement method used.
Monitoring of mycotoxins and other contaminants in UK cereals used in malting, milling and animal feed
Feed and food safety / 3779 / Published: 1 August 2012
This project will help assure cereal processors that their raw materials are safe for human and animal consumption. It will generate new data on areas of concern for the cereals industry regarding chemical food safety to build on existing information.
Genetic improvement of wheat to reduce the potential for acrylamide formation during processing
Feed and food safety / 3748 / Published: 10 July 2012
This project seeks to identify currently available varieties and genotypes of wheat that are low in free asparagines. The project also aims to provide wheat breeders with the genetic tools to reduce the concentration of free asparagine further. Food industry partners will assess the impact of reductions in acrylamide-forming potential of grain on performance in industrial processes.
