Description
What it is. Whole fruit or broken pieces of Prunus dulcis, with or without shell. Catalogue entry under the "other seeds and fruits" chapter of feed materials.
What it is for. This type of product is generally used as an energy and fat source in feed formulation, given the oil content typical of oilseed fruits. It would generally be included in diets for various species, subject to availability and cost, and is generally used in limited proportions alongside other energy raw materials. No specific levels of use are documented here.
Points to watch. No maximum content or declared constituent is specified in the available sources; formulators should check fat content and particle size before use. Presence of shell fragments and batch-to-batch variability in composition should be verified at reception; store under dry conditions to limit rancidity risk.
