Effective control of aflatoxins in dairy cows

Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by fungi, which can multiply and grow fast in a variety of feedstuffs and stages of crop production, especially in warm and humid conditions often observed in southern EU countries. Why are aflatoxins a real risk? Because weather conditions cannot be controlled, accumulation of mycotoxins is more frequent on the fields making the prior-harvest period very important. Mycotoxins can also grow during transporting and storing feedstuffs at the farm pr
