How they work artificial additives?
Synthetic supplements have no nutritional value and are used to bring feeds to a single standard. They keep the same color, size, granule shape and irrespective of the party and provide visibility of the product.

So, without the use of artificial dyes, preservatives and other additives the color of the forage depends primarily on the color of its components (meat, grains, vegetables, etc.), which in nature is always different. In addition, organic food is subject to natural organoleptic changes that affect color saturation. That’s why the color and shape of the pellets can vary depending on affiliation to the party.
