Description
1. Product Overview
Dicalcium Phosphate (DCP) is a high-purity calcium and phosphorus mineral compound widely used as a nutritional ingredient and functional additive across animal feed, food, and industrial applications. It serves as a critical source of bioavailable calcium and phosphorus, supporting livestock growth, bone development, and optimized feed performance. With consistent quality, excellent digestibility, and global demand across agriculture and nutrition sectors, DCP remains a strategically important mineral solution for improving productivity and efficiency in modern supply chains.
