Dicalcium Phosphate (DCP) or Calcium Phosphate, Dibasic is a phosphate compound used in the feed grade animal nutrition industry. DCP also known as calcium hydrogenphosphate acts as balanced source of both calcium and phosphorus, essential for bone development, metabolic health in livestock and poultry needs. DCP common manufacturing ensures it's preferrence in feed premixes and mineral blends to improve skeletal strength and feed efficiency. Cost-effective mineral additive for animal feed is a direct end usage for DCP and that is primarily balanced the phosphorus-calcium ratio in it. DCP Functions best in neutral or alkaline feed formulations with consistent solubility and bioavailability.
