The present invention relates to a microemulsion base that is capable of functioning as a self-emulsifying microemulsion base and does not require the addition of water or an aqueous phase. The compositions of the present invention can be directly applied to saponified pigments to form a stable microemulsion with improved pigment absorption. Another aspect of the present invention relates to the process for creating stable microemulsions with improved pigment absorption. Another aspect of the present invention relates to methods of using stable microemulsions to deliver pigments or carotenoids to animals to impart preferred attributes to animals. Another aspect of the present invention relates to a two-in-one microemulsion system with enhanced delivery, solubility and absorption of a pigment or carotenoid.

The invention relates to the use of at least one bacterial phytase in combination with one or more protease(s) in animal feed for improving nutrient and E ileal digestibility of animal feed, in particular an improved digestibility of Threonine, Proline and Cysteine, the method comprising the step of applying to the animal a feed with an efficient amount of one or more proteolytic enzyme in combination with at least one phytase.

A method for using treated biochar to reduce the overall environmental impact of farming and minimize the carbon footprint of farms is provided. The method comprising engaging in one or more of the following practices: (1) combining treated biochar with feed or using biochar as feed for animals to reduce methane from enteric fermentation and increase animal health and nutrition; (2) combining treated biochar with compost, animal bedding or manure piles to reduce odor and increase nutrient retention; (3) applying treated biochar to lagoons to reduce odor and treat water; (4) applying treated biochar to pastures to increase pasture health; (5) applying treated biochar to crops to increase crop productivity, healthier roots and prevent fertilizer leaching; and (6) using the carbon negativity of a produced biochar to reduce the overall farm or ranch carbon footprint.
