For its latest World Mycotoxin Survey, Biomin conducted more than 33,000 analyses on 8,452 finished feed and raw commodity samples from 63 countries from January to June 2017. These analyses covered common components used for feed such as corn, wheat, barley, rice, soybean meal , corn gluten meal, dried distillers grains (DDGS) and silage, among others. In the latest World Mycotoxin Survey, Biomin conducted more than 33,000 analyses of 8,452 finished feed and original commodity samples from 63 countries from January to June 2017. These analyses cover common ingredients used in feeds such as corn, wheat, barley, rice, soybean meal, corn bran powder, dried distillers grains (DDGS) and silage. Results of the analyses found that deoxynivalenol (DON) and fumonisins (FUM) are the most common mycotoxins found in feedstuffs. The analysis found that deoxynivalenol (DON) and fumonisin (FON) are the most common mycotoxins found in feed. The survey details the incidence of the main mycotoxins occurring in agricultural commodities, which include aflatoxins (Afla), zearalenone (ZEN), deoxynivalenol, T-2 toxin (T-2), fumonisins and ochratoxin A (OTA).

Europe Five mycotoxins are above the risk threshold and Europe faces a serious risk of mycotoxin contamination. The most common mycotoxin in the area is deoxynivalenol, which was detected in 77% of the samples, followed by zearalenone, which was detected in 58% of the samples. The maximum concentration of deoxynivalenol from a finished feed sample from Spain was 28,470 ppb, and the highest maximum fumonisin concentration (9,478 ppb) was detected in Russian samples. Asia In Asia, the average concentration of five mycotoxins was above the risk threshold, indicating that the region faces a severe contamination risk. The most prevalent mycotoxin was fumonisins, detected in 81 percent of samples, followed by deoxynivalenol, detected in 79 percent of samples analyzed Biomin says, although the incidence of aflatoxins was rather low (34 percent of samples analyzed contaminated with this mycotoxin), the average concentration is worrisome and represents a threat to animals. Asia In Asia, the average concentration of five mycotoxins is above the risk threshold, indicating a serious risk of contamination in the area. The most common mycotoxin is fumonisin, detected in 81% of the samples, followed by deoxynivalenol, which was detected in 79% of the samples. Biomin said that although the incidence of aflatoxins is quite low (34% of the analyzed sample mycotoxins are detected), the average concentration is worrying and poses a threat to animals. North America North America faces a severe risk of mycotoxin contamination with five mycotoxins above the risk threshold.
