Fruit Waste Processing Business<\/em><\/p>\n

India loses 30-40% of all the processed fruits. That’s millions of tonnes of mango kernels, pomegranate peels, guava pulp and banana skins dumped in landfills, while poultry farmers spend \u20b91.50 lakh crore annually on feed ingredients that they can’t afford to make stable. According to AviNews, an extensive review of broiler nutrition research between 2021 and 2026<\/a> has concluded that broiler chicken can be fed as much as 10-20% of the maize and\/or soybean meal in the conventional diet with fruit processing wastes without compromising the performance of the birds. At 2% inclusion, pomegranate peel resulted in decrease of abdominal fat, E. coli and an improvement in gut immunity. These are results that are relevant to the commercial world, and not research footnotes.<\/p>\n
