Neova Agro has a strategy of promoting food security and ensuring the production of clean food at its source. Animal nutrition products made from pure and safe raw materials are the key to animal wellbeing and growth. In the unspoiled Nordic landscapes of Finland, Neova has spent decades mastering the art and science of peat research. With a deep-rooted passion for this unique material, Neova combines traditional expertise with cutting-edge research to sustainable refine peat of exceptional purity and functionality. Today, this clean, natural, and sustainable material is being harnessed in animal nutrition – backed by rigorous scientific inquiry to enhance both animal welfare and performance.
PROHUMI®
Peat is a natural material that has unique properties in supporting the intestinal wellbeing of animals. Neova’s product development has identified a peat quality that is particularly suitable for feed use and feeding trials have shown its suitability especially for piglets. The special peat in Prohumi® contains carbohydrates beneficial for intestinal microbes and several useful bioactive compounds. The product is also suitable for environmental enrichment use encouraging natural behaviours of pigs and satisfying their natural need, for example, to foraging, which supports the animals’ wellbeing.
Neova has launched Prohumi® product in collaboration with Hankkija Oy, a company part of the Danish Agro group. ProHumi®, made of special feed quality peat, is developed for pig feed and environmental enrichment material use, and the use of ProHumi® will be expanded to other animal groups.

Animal welfare is a megatrend
Animal welfare is emphasized in European Union legislation. Animal welfare and the responsible use of antibiotics are supported, for example, by the EU’s Farm to Fork strategy. The aim is to reduce the use of antibiotics in livestock farming without compromising animal health. There is a growing demand for responsible feed alternatives, so that the use of human-edible food as feed decreases and at the same time farmland can be freed up for food production.
GROWLEDGE
What truly sets Neova Agro apart is its commitment to scientific validation of peat’s role in animal nutrition. In collaboration with research institutions and universities Neova Agro has invested in studies exploring the mode of action of peat in animal physiology. These studies have revealed that peat’s complex organic structure supports gut health, modulates the microbiome, and enhances immune function -contributing to improved animal welfare and performance.
In feed product development, Neova invests in the high quality and hygiene level of production and raw materials, responding to customer needs with new, innovative products.
