What technological features must be observed in the production of VTM?
Compliance with the temperature regime: The drying process of herbs and crops must take place at a certain temperature in order to preserve vitamins and nutrients.
Observance of the drying time: Drying time also plays an important role in the production of vitamin and herbal flour. If drying lasts too long, the vitamins may break down, and if it is too short, the flour may not be dry enough and lose its properties during storage.
Grinding: After drying, the herbs must be ground to flour. Special mills are used for this purpose. It is important that the flour is fine enough to be conveniently used in animal feeding.
Packaging: Flour must be packed in airtight bags or bags to prevent its oxidation and loss of vitamins.
Keeping: Flour should be stored in a cool, dry place, protected from direct sunlight.
Quality control: At all stages of production, it is necessary to control the quality of flour to ensure its compliance with standards and requirements.
