Description
What it is. Essential oil obtained from the leaves of Agathosma betulina (syn. Barosma betulina), a shrub of the Rutaceae family native to South Africa. It is a flavouring substance classified under functional group 2b (aromatic compounds).
What it is for. It is generally used as a sensory feed additive to influence the organoleptic characteristics of compound feed. As with other 2b flavouring substances, it would typically be included at low inclusion levels, without a specific nutritional function.
Points to watch. No maximum content is specified in the sources; inclusion should follow the official description and the regulatory annex. As an aromatic substance, composition may vary depending on plant origin and extraction process; store protected from light and heat to limit volatile losses.
