Avian Influenza (AI), commonly known as bird flu, is a highly contagious viral disease affecting poultry and other birds. It poses a serious threat to the poultry industries, causing significant economic losses due to high mortality rates, trade restrictions, and culling measures. The disease is particularly...
Dear Piotr, thank you very much for your point of view. It helps me use enzymes correctly, depending on the available substrates contained in the feed. I think that attention should also be paid to the methods of feed enzymes application, which have historically been used in different countries, this is 1) "over the top" of complete feed (for maximum absorption of nutrients) and also 2) "down specification" to reduce the cost of feed. The risk factor from using of the matrix values in the...

@Mohamed Fakhoury It is not difficult to analyse the substrate.Every time we can not analyse it as it is time consuming and expensive.We have to consider the average values of feed ingredients in perticular geographical areas. Plus we have to analyse the activity of enzymes based on the method of analysis as recommended by enzyme suppliers.Which is not again easy task....
Broiler Industry The broiler industry is a crucial pillar of India’s agricultural economy, ensuring food security, employment, and rural development. However, ethical concerns surrounding animal welfare, feed sourcing, worker rights, environmental sustainability, and consumer transparency continue to challenge the industry. As the sector grows, addressing these ethical issues is critical for long-term sustainability and global competitiveness. Current Ethical Challenges...
Substrate Analysis: Verifying Substrate Levels in Diets Before Applying Enzymes Enzyme supplementation in animal feed is a highly effective tool for improving nutrient utilization, especially when it comes to breaking down complex compounds in raw materials like grains, oilseeds, and fibrous plant materials. However, for enzymes to be truly effective, their application must be based on a solid understanding of the substrate they are targeting. Substrate analysis, which involves...

INTRODUCTION The ability to maintain an affordable, safe, and sustainable food supply is a global challenge. Meat consumption trends are changing, with increasing preferences for cheaper and processed white meat and a decline in cereals share of the total food (Sefeedpari et al., 2013; Faridi et al., 2011). The consequent increases in poultry meat production by a factor of seven (3206%) and eggs by a factor of three have overburdened sustainable production (Sousa et al., 2005)....

@Dr Pragati Salutgi You are absolutely right. The enzymes are always substrate specific. While designing the enzyme products, we always consider the general composition of diet. We only consider the type of cereals and protein sources used. Otherwise we have to design tailor-made enzymes. Similarly, ME utilisation always depends on composition of diet because of which we always underestimate or overestimate energy values of feed. Biological variation is always there. We should give...
