Introduction Poultry production has experienced a lot of remarkable growth within the past forty years, but there are still some problems confronting the industry, one of which is the high cost of feed materials. Recent data have shown that feed cost constitutes about 70-75% of the total cost of production, this could be basically attributed to the stiff competition between humans and animals for grains and upward increase in human population, poor government policies and...

The importance of vitamin nutrition in poultry feeding has been recognized for decades, yet precise vitamin requirements for modern, high producing have not been investigated. Because of their low inclusion rates, vitamins have a relatively small impact on the cost of feed. Many vitamins lose activity over time or under high-temperature feed processing. Vitamins, especially the water-soluble vitamins, are tolerated at many times the established minimum recommended levels. Finally, the...

Introduction Maternal nutrition during gestation and early life events impact offspring development throughout life, in a phenomenon known as developmental programming. The Barker hypothesis explains that undernutrition during specific developmental periods in pregnancy can create a scenario of pre- and post-partum metabolic mismatch (Hales and Barker, 2001). Metabolic mismatch occurs when offspring of undernourished cows are ‘programed’ to expect limited nutritional...

INTRODUCTION The global production of chicken eggs is constantly increasing, e.g., 37.4 million tons of chicken-eggs were produced in 1990, and 80 million tons in 2018. The WHO has estimated that production will have to increase four-fold to meet the global demand for chicken eggs in the next two decades (1, 2). Hence, the poultry industry must be increasingly efficient despite being one of the most efficient and technologically advanced animal production activities...
