Dried potato slices is a fine, starchy powder extracted from potatoes. During potato processing, about 30% of the potato is released as a residual stream. Much of this is shreds or potato pieces. These scraps are dried and possibly ground into flour. It provides a natural source of energy for animal feed, making the ration more digestible and uniform.
Dried Potato Slices
-
Rich in starch – a concentrated source of energy for animals.
-
Improves feed consistency – helps bind and stabilize compound feeds.
-
Highly digestible – light for the digestive systems of dogs, cats, cattle, pigs and poultry.
-
Natural product – unprocessed, with no artificial additives.
-
Sustainable – produced from potato residue streams, circularly usable.
-
Flexible use – can be easily combined with other protein and energy-rich raw materials.
- Functional in the extrusion process – the unlocking rate is 25-35 % which gives a nice stable end product in extrusion.
