Animal nutrition player eFeed raises funding from Omnivore

Business Line  

Omnivore Partners has invested in eFeed, a Pune-based animal nutrition and health company manufacturing products for livestock. This is Omnivore's third life sciences investment under its OmniX Bio initiative, which was launched in December 2021. eFeed has developed nutritional supplements for livestock which can improve overall cattle health while also increasing milk yield. eFeed's digital nutrition application also provides customised ration balancing, factoring in the location of the cattle and available raw materials for feeding. The application also connects veterinary doctors to cattle farmers for easy access to medical services. eFeed will use the funds to strengthen its R&D operations, expand the farmer network, and for hiring talent.
