Forum: Alternative ingredients in diets for poultry and pigs

Published: December 21, 2010

with the high cost of corn, soybean meal and yellow grease, we can use alternative sources of energy and protein, for example, broken rice, sorghum, wheat, pasta meal , bakery meal, whole soybean meal, poultry by-products , meat and bone meal, DDGS.
These ingredients can help reduce costs without affecting the performance of our animals, in small amounts can be used cassava and sweet potato meal , also the wheat bran and rice.

The alternative ingredients like rice, canola meal, wheat bran, etc are being used in poultry feed industry of Pakistan since last 4 decades very successfully. We have a unique model developed according to our own requirements. Our broiler starter diets are low density (Kcal 2750) and low protein (maximum 19[percent]) and our commercial poultry is highly profitable. We are using more than 40 ingredients to formulate a diet depending upon availability, cost, season, etc.

I think that nutritionists from all over the world could follow Pakistan model to manufacture poultry feed without any fear. We could help them if they want.

Algeria is a major producer of barley, poultry feed manufacturers have substituted some corn imported with barley. Replacement rates corn are 25[percent] in laying hens and 35[percent] in the broiler diets. We used an enzyme complex containing several enzymes. Performance of production (laying rate [percent], egg quality, body weight, feed intake, feed conversion….) were unchanged compared with birds receiving 100[percent] corn Nadir Alloui
