Open Pet Food Facts

Central page for Open Pet Food Facts coordination.

Key dates and numbers

Launched Open Pet Food Facts the day before April 1st 2018, as a replacement to Open Food Facts and Open Beauty Facts, with full pet takeover (French, English)

Why it matters

An animal usually eats the same food every single day for most of its life
There's little transparency for petfood when compared to human food
There are no scores equivalent, and it's a complex topic given the variety of nutritional needs (animal kind, breed, age, castration, …)

Differences with Open Food Facts

This project list the differences with food products for humans.

Ingredients

The ingredients can be separated into two parts: the main ingredients and the additives. These can imply 2 images as well.

Nutrition

The analysis of the nutrients is a bit different. The main analysis consists of only 5 elements:
- Crude protein
- Crude fibre
- Crude fat
- Crude ashes
- Moisture

Additives

There also can be additives that are listed separately. This list is relevant to the ingredients (as the additives have been added) and gives an impression(?) of the nutritional values. It is not given as an analysis of all the ingredients.
The additives are sometimes expressed as the originating compound, i.e. ferrous carbonate supplies the iron.
A list of compounds and minerals (petfood additives translations):

Mineral	Compound	Ratio
Iron	Ferrous Carbonate	0.399
	Ferrous sulfate monohydrate	0.33
	Ferric oxide	0.71
Iode	Anhydrous calcium iodate	0.71
	Iodure de potassium	0.79
Copper	Copper sulfate pentahydrate	0.25-0.27
Zinc	Zinc oxide / Oxyde de zinc	0.714
	Sulfate de zinc monohydraté	0.365
Selenium	Selenomethione	0.68
	Sélénite de sodium	0.5
Manganese	Manganous oxide	0.573
	Sulfate manganeux monohydraté	0.33

This seems to be a good way to express minerals, as the effectiveness of mineral absorption seems to depend on the compound used.
This is also related to the units that are used. Additives can be expressed in International Units / kg of g / kg. Using the International Unit takes into account the effectiveness of the compound. Internationl units are used for vitamine A, vitamine D3.
The amount of a single mineral can be due to multiple compounds (example ferric oxide and ferrous sulfate monohydrate). The iron from both compounds must be added.

Open Pet Food Facts, Kesako ?

Dans la grande tradition de mettre la technologie à la disposition de nos animaux de compagnie et à leur propriétaires , l'équipe de bénévoles derrière Open Food Facts et Open Beauty Facts est fière de dévoiler une solution au problème grandissant du surpoids chez les animaux de compagnie. Voici Open Pet Food Facts

Open Pet Food Facts

Aliments pour chiens, Aliments pour chats, Aliments pour oiseaux ou Nourriture pour poissons? C'est VOUS qui décidez.

Bien que Open Food Facts soit passé de 100 à 300 000 produits en quelques mois, l'indexation de tous les aliments dans le monde s'avère être un défi important: il existe encore des millions de produits qui ne sont pas encore indexés dans le monde entier. En conséquence, nous avons décidé de nous concentrer sur une tâche plus facile à réaliser : les aliments pour animaux de compagnie. Et bien que nous aimons tous les animaux de compagnie de manière égale, pour rendre notre objectif réalisable, nous devons nous concentrer pour le moment uniquement sur un type d'animal de compagnie : chiens, chats ou oiseaux, etc.

Mais la bonne nouvelle est que vous pouvez décider quel animal de compagnie, en participant à notre compétition mondiale:

1 nouvelle nourriture pour animal téléchargée pour Open Pet Food Facts = 1 vote pour le type de nourriture pour animaux de votre choix

Résultats en temps réel:
Une personne peut envoyer autant de votes qu'elle le souhaite (sous la forme d'un produit scanné) et tous les votes doivent être envoyés avant ce soir à minuit GMT. Donc, si vous voulez aider votre chat, par exemple, à manger sainement et à garder la ligne, numérisez autant d'aliments pour chats que possible afin d'augmenter les chances que la nourriture pour chat gagne et transforme Open Pet Food Facts en Open Cat Food Facts. Ou Open Dog Food Facts. Ou Open Bird Food Facts.

Vous pouvez également faire connaître votre soutien en partageant Open Pet Food Facts à vos amis. Assurez-vous d'inclure #OpenPetFoodFacts et #Chien #Chat, #Ornithorynque ou #l'animal qui devrait être le roi d'Open Pet Food Facts. Nous comptons également l'activité de retweet dans la compétition : trois retweets comptent pour un vote supplémentaire, alors mobilisez la Team Chat, Chien ou Pigeon.

A propos d'Open Pet Food Facts:

Open Pet Food Facts a été créé par Yaki et Tori, les 2 poules vivant en liberté dans le jardin de Stéphane Gigandet. Yaki et Tori étaient bouleversées par le fait que rien n'exiait sur les données ouvertes pour la nutrition des animaux de compagnie. Elles ont d'abord voulu nommer le projet OpenChickenFoodFacts (à ne pas confondre avec OpenFriedChickenFoodFacts, qu'elles désapprouvent), mais le chat errant du voisinage les a curieusement persuadées d'élargir le projet à d'autres animaux de compagnie.
