Nutreco announces that its global animal nutrition research centres will be renamed to Trouw Nutrition R&D. This change is part of the strengthening of its global animal nutrition activities under one brand. Trouw Nutrition R&D encompasses five research centres operating in the Netherlands, Spain and Canada. Nutreco will also double its investment in R&D and innovation over the next years.
