Farmers: the guardians of biodiversity

For centuries, extensive cattle farming has helped shape the unique landscape of Spain’s western region. Rural areas in Western Spain are increasingly being deserted by young people due to lack of opportunities. Facing a lack of succession, many aging farmers eventually go out of business. And with grazing cattle disappearing, the delicate balance of the grassland ecosystem is under serious threat. A group of passionate researchers, agricultural experts and local farmers are on a mission to revitalise the extensive farmer’s profession. Leading the efforts of De Heus in this initiative is Jesús Carrizo, Technical Director at De Heus Spain.

Zero measurement: the starting point for reducing our carbon footprint

By 2050 the global population will have grown to 9.8 billion people. Producing enough safe, healthy, and affordable food for this growing population will lead to a 56 percent increase in the global demand for food and an increase of nearly 70 percent for animal-based foods.

De Heus Vietnam announces opening 5th factory

De Heus LLC announces the opening of its 5th factory in Vietnam, located in Vinh Phuc province. Government officials from Vinh Phuc province and the Ambassador of the Netherlands, De Heus' employees, partners, and around 1,400 customers witnessed the official opening today of the 5th De Heus feed factory located at Binh Xuyen Industrial Park. With a total investment of US$30,000,000 and the production capacity of 400,000 tons per year, the factory is expected to follow the success of the Hai Phong factory in Northern Vietnam. This will greatly strengthen De Heus' market position in the region. The Vinh Phuc factory will contribute to the total production capacity of De Heus to 850.000 tons per year.

Paweł Michalski, head of the quality assurance and production technology department

Paweł describes his professional career as being one with two main parts. The first was the time ‘before De Heus’ when he was a laboratory technician and a recipe specialist in the feed industry. Paweł: “That was a time of intense learning, searching for my own place and opportunities for personal development, which were not so obvious in the previous company. The turning point in my career came when I was contacted by De Heus and subsequently started working as Junior Product Manager in 2018. Thanks to this work, I obtained access to the commercial market and was able to have a real impact on the shape and specificity of products, but also on changes in the whole company. In April 2021, I was appointed head of the quality assurance and production technology department.”
