Gordon Rosen is a scientist who has established a model made up of 7 criteria in order to objectively evaluate the efficiency of feed additives on animals’ performance (2004).
The following table compares the data obtained with B-SAFE in poultry to the data expected by ROSEN for the 7 criteria, enabling to determinate if B-SAFE can be considered as an efficient feed additive.
In non-optimum sanitary conditions (challenge = field), B-SAFE expected gains are higher than in R&D centers (=non challenge).
Conclusion
By the analysis of 36 trials carried out on poultry, B-SAFE proves that it can be considered as an efficient feed additive, answering positively to the 7 criteria of Rosen’s screen. B-SAFE is objectively a reliable and cost-effective solution to improve significantly zootechnical performances.
