Sushil Chandra , in a situation, were cane molasses is used in the feed formulation, is it right to use as well bentonite@1% and gelatin?

We feed mash on our farm and it’s better than pallets because it’s the same every time pallets sometimes fall apart than u get dusty feed broilers don’t like eating dusty feed

Kindly add pellet binder like bentonite @1% in the mixer and also 1 litre of geltin to make pellet slightly harder which will reduce powder % and segregation will reduce.Regard.

Pelleting does increase the cost of production as compared to mash but u look into efficiency of pellet, it’s much more better in terms of FCR, feed wastage, energy utilised by birds for prehenson of feed
With one pick of pellet complete feed goes into bird. More pellet is geletenised and cooked food thus BV of pellet is much better than mash

wowooo!!! progressive, what are the benefits of using butyric acid, or caproc acid in broiler production?.
I have been using 4ml to 5ml per litre of water of cane mollasses for my birds for both indoor and free range birds, its has really worked for me.

In drinking water I use for poultry and turkey a mix product of Estman with mcfa( more caproc acido ) with emulsifier. Dosage is around 800-1000 cc for t water. Use against gram + and gram -.

What is the recommended dose of butyric acid in drinking water? Is butyric acid soluble in water or added with emulsifier?
There are not problems by putting butyrrc acid in drinking water'
Thank you in advance.

Yes, truly a good effort we really need to find other nutritive replacement to maize and its by-product in our poultry ration.

Instead of adding more expenses on value addition on water quality, which other group will oppose to more especially those that believe in organic foods, why not coming up with transgenically grain-based enzymes as additional to feed additives?

thanks for your advice doc, but if its worth trying only the deference in weights will encourage other farmers to go for the idea
