The role of functional feed additives after AGPs ban
I appreciate such a policy which is more valuable human health. There are many functional feed additives in the market which can replace AGPs. like coated butyric acid plus mid-chain fatty acid, prebiotics & probiotics etc. To implement this policy all stakeholders in this industry have to work together for a long time. All of us have to say no to pollution & adulteration.
Thanks to all.
Congratulations on your approach to an issue that is still causing a lot of controversy, which is the withdrawal of antibiotics as growth promoters. We understand that prophylaxis measures, efficient biosafety programs and commercially available additives will make it possible to eliminate AGP once and for all, even those that are proven to be not absorbed by the digestive tract of birds. After all, which is the company that demonstrably evaluates the results of a given AGP? What method was used for this assessment?
It is known that AGPC has no beneficial or harmful effect on many swine and poultry farms. It is already known that many farms in Brazil have abolished AGP and that is not why there has been any decrease in performance. Even without taking into account the resistance factor, we do question the benefits of using AGP’s, and we are absolutely sure that their use is already over.
