Introduction It is assumed that net energy (NE) represents the most accurate way to value a feed for productive purposes (Barzegar et al., 2020; Liu et al., 2017; Wu et al., 2019). This explains the variations in the metabolic utilization of metabolizable energy (ME) from nutrients and ingredients (Noblet, 2015), explains the loss of energy as heat (Swick et al., 2013), and allows for more accurate prediction of the productive response of animals. The composition of diets (type...
There has been an observed increase in the presence of agricultural chemicals in drinking water (1). However, the health risks associated with chronic exposure remain poorly understood (2). Most risk assessments rely on single-chemical studies, despite evidence that mixtures exert synergistic or compensatory effects on host physiology and microbial function. Xenobiotics, including pesticides and emerging contaminants such as microplastics (MPs), enter livestock and humans primarily...
Julie Doung, Global Species Marketing Manager at Adisseo, explains how Adisseo helps nutritionists replace fixed safety margins with data-driven strategies to cut hidden costs and improve feed efficiency. ...
Hello, Dr., your research is valuable. Performing and achieving slaughter weight requires factors such as genetic capacity and ideal environmental conditions. And this issue of raising and achieving a chicken weight of about 2850 is only possible under conditions of high-precision experiments in feeding and monitoring chicken movements, but in practical conditions in poultry farms of different countries, both modern and non-modern, sometimes with problems associated with this. First, feeding...
Hello, Dr., thank you for your comments. It is a good suggestion. There is one issue. Betaine is known as a methyl group donor that may change the course of the experiment and record new data. And if it plays a role in heat stress, we should look at the role of betaine in the production of glucose because the only way to get rid of stress is to produce glucose and maintain the body's sugar level so that the general line of defense of the body can be active and effective in the event of a...

1. Introduction Intense genetic selection, combined with an effective feeding program and efficient rearing management greatly improved productivity and efficiency of broiler production [1]. Despite the low genetic variation and well-controlled rearing environment in modern broiler production, there can still be noticeable variations in body weight (BW) within a flock [2]. Ideally, broiler production wants to produce homogenous products for production efficiency [3]. High variations...
Introduction Whereas modern broilers have low genetic variation and wellcontrolled rearing environment, there are still high variations in BW within a flock (Lundberg et al., 2021). While uniformity is a universal issue in poultry production, there are still no cost-effective interventions other than culling heavy and small birds to improve uniformity within a broiler flock (Choi et al., 2026). Poor uniformity can cause tremendous economic loss mainly by decreasing efficiency...
Veterinary APIs Price Index (VPi): May 7th 67.27 May 13th 67.03 May 20th 66.95 May 27th 66.79 The veterinary APIs market is currently exhibiting a generally weak and stable trend, characterized by a persistent divergence in patterns—showing more declines than increases, alongside subdued trading activity primarily influenced by essential demand. The prices of doxycycline hyclate, tylosin tartrate, tiamulin, and...
Introduction Global consumers have ongoing concerns about the effects of animal production systems on animal welfare and their effects on quality attributes of food products from intensive production systems [1]. Due to consumer concerns, research on animal welfare has been strengthened [2]. Welfare has become one of the most important and essential topics for modern animal production because animals are sentient beings capable of suffering and experiencing emotional states [3,4]....
