Transforming the way we manage mycotoxin-related stress

However, we are still missing the obvious: we haven’t yet quantified and thus, assessed the true exposure of animals to mycotoxins. Although field surveys and feed risk assessments are valuable, their real usefulness (when applied in isolation) remains highly questionable, since they fail to reveal the true exposure of animals to mycotoxins. Feed sampling per se, is problematic. Nearly 90% of the error
