Abstract
Unseasonal rains, humid weather with high temperatures, drought, insect damage to crops, and insufficiently managed storage conditions can cause huge amounts of feed raw materials to rot away. This can lead to omnipresent parasitic or saprophytic growth of molds on feed raw materials with increasing mycotoxin contamination thus affecting feed and food security.
