Recent publications by Verhelle und Saremi (2024) and Westreicher-Kristen et al. (2025) reported broiler feeding experiments to evaluate the nutritional value of guanidinoacetic acid (GAA) in comparison to L-arginine (L-Arg). Basically, reported broiler performance responses are in agreement with expectations based on literature. However, the authors drew misleading conclusions on the efficacy of ...

In previous assays (Macelline et al., 2022), data on egg production rate (EP) and egg mass (EM) of Isa Brown layers from 27 to 33 weeks of age (peak production -PP) and from 42 to 48 weeks of age (Post PP) were used to predict amino acid (AA) requirements by fitting linear broken-line (LBL), and quadratic broken-line (QBL) models. Subsequently, the ideal ratios of Ile, Met + Cys, Thr, Trp, and Val ...

Compilation of a projectKEY INFORMATIONA series of 5 commercial feeding trials was performed from which 4 trials took place on commercial broiler farms growing between 300,000 and 420,000 broilers per cycle.Dietary protein was gradually reduced in subsequent trial while standard diets well represented German broiler feed. Basically, average crude protein levels were decreased by 0.3 % up to 1.5 %. ...
