Scoular to begin production of barley protein for pet food
Scoular will start producing its newly developed sustainable ingredient, called Emerge™, at its new Idaho facility.
“Scoular is proud to develop this innovative feed product and partner with Idaho’s barley farmers and pet food and aqua feed manufacturers to add value throughout the supply chain,” said Scoular CEO Paul Maass.
Emerge, both traceable and non-GMO, is created through a patent-pending process that concentrates the protein naturally found in whole barley kernels, creating a nutrient-dense ingredient for use in pet food and aqua feed.
The facility is expected to begin commercial production in January.
