Introduction: Recent research has demonstrated that maternal dietary supplementation of LactoShield® (seaweed extract) had beneficial effects on the growth performance, immune status and gastrointestinal health of weanling pigs. The primary objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of maternal dietary LactoShield® inclusion on the reproductive performance of sows and the piglet during the suckling period. Materials and Methods: The farm...

Introduction: The experiment was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of a phytogenic feed additive (PFA) on body weight gain, carcass composition and quality of 72 finishing pigs [(Large White x Landrace) x Pi train)]. Materials and Methods: Animals were distributed into 3 treatment groups considering litter, live weight and sex. The 3 treatment groups were control group (CON), phytogenic group 1 (PFA+normal) and phytogenic group 2 (PFA+low). The diet was based...

Introduction Nursery pig diets typically contain highly digestible and expensive ingredients (e.g., animal protein sources) to combat the post-weaning growth lag (Campbell and Dunkin, 1983; Lallès et al., 2004). However, after an initial reduction in growth performance, nursery pigs fed simple, corn-and soybean meal ( SBM )-based diets can achieve body weights not different from pigs fed nursery diets that contain highly digestible ingredients via compensatory growth...

Introduction The world population is expected to increase by ~2 billion, reaching 9.7 billion in 2050 (UN, 2019). Compared to 2012, this growth of the global population and affluence of emerging economies is predicted to promote a 40 to 55% increase in global demand for meat and dairy products by 2050 (FAO, 2018). Land resources available to expand production is limited, and there is increasing societal pressure to reduce the degradation of natural resources. In addition, animal...

Introduction The Canadian beef industry produces over 1.5 million tonnes of high-quality protein annually while maintaining the highest standards in animal care and environmental sustainability (CCA, 2020). In Canada, access to in-feed antibiotics has been limited to veterinary prescription and growth claims have been removed. To keep up the high standards of efficient production and prudent antimicrobial stewardship in the beef industry, alternative feed additives like yeast...

Introduction Medicinal plants are a rich source of phytochemicals and natural compounds (alkaloids, flavonoids, steroids, terpenoids, tannins and phenols) with marked therapeutic properties (Ruchika et al ., 2022; Roma-Marzio et al ., 2017). They are potential source of drugs and are traditionally used in the treatment of digestive disorders, measles, cold, cough, diarrhea, arthritis, skin disease, joint pain, hemorrhoids, fever, sore throat and sexually...

Introduction Early fish development is the most important thing that should be known before producing any seeds, especially in the new cultured species or strain. Generally, early development is divided into egg, larvae and juvenile, whereas mostly fish embryos develop from transparent eggs [1] . According to Kendall et al. [2], the egg stage is divided into early, middle and late subdivisions, which end with blastopore closure, freeing of the tail bud from the yolk, and...

There are several components of grain and plants that can cause detrimental effects on animal production. These components are commonly known as antinutritional factors. According to their mode of action, anti-nutritional factors can be grouped as follows: Substances that limit or decrease the digestion or metabolism of proteins, ex. lectins and saponins. Substances that interfere or decrease the correct utilization of minerals, ex. phytic acid and oxalic...

Consumers are basing their purchasing decisions on how the meat, milk, and eggs are raised. With more consumers and animal advocacy organizations pushing to reduce – or eliminate in some cases – the use of antibiotics in livestock production, several challenges have come to light. Many veterinarians and producers are...

Introduction Livestock farmers are transitioning to a production technique that uses few or no synthetic antibiotics at all in a new era. This is due to the increasing rate of antimicrobial resistance and more frequent notation of multidrug resistance strains (IPA, 2003). Environmental pollution, presence of toxic residue in the carcass leading to death of animal has also been identified as one of the disadvantages on indiscriminate use of antibiotics (Alagbe, 2019; Hyun et...

Introduction Phytogenics are plant derived materials with a potential to improve animal performance (feed intake, palatability and growth) and health status (gastro intestinal tract integrity and immune system). The use of phytogenics are increasingly gaining interest globally due to the recent ban on the use of antibiotics by the European Union in 2006 and its dangers to the environment, contaminated products which could lead to serious health dangers in...

Back in 2013, in the very first blog I published on the Insta-Pro website, I wrote about how extrusion processing, especially high-shear dry extrusion from Insta-Pro, was a reliable way to produce better ingredients and make it easier for animals to extract more dietary energy for productive purposes. Animals need energy to make meat, milk,...

Increasing focus on the nutritive value and well-being of farmed animals on account of growing meat consumption will potentially drive the demand for specialty animal feed additives in North America. There is a noticeable deficiency of essential nutrients in animal diets that usually is a mix of maize, wheat, and soybean meal.
Specialty animal feed additives in animal nutrition are ingredients like vitamins, amino acids, preservatives, and antioxidants, that are added in small...

“The global animal feed protein ingredients market size is predicted to surpass a valuation of USD 280 billion by 2027, as per a report by Global Market Insights Inc.”
Livestock animals have been a part of the global food supply for the longest time now, making animal feed an increasingly crucial element of the integrated food chain. In recent decades, population growth across developed and developing economies has pushed the demand for alternative food sources...
