Effect of Gano-met® on growth performance in broilers
Published:February 26, 2019
Summary
Introduction Rearing poultry under antibiotics-free system is coming with challenges from nutrition and health management though biosecurity and vaccination program of poultry can be applied to reduce risk of exposure to pathogens, threat of disease is exist. Supplementation in nutrients to enhance immunity system and lower the risk of pathogen can help to promote health condition and raising ...
So many questions.
1. Feed spec not shown. Deficient in M+C? Energy levels? Other AAs?
2. No data on FCR, feed intake
3. No explanation of causes of mortality
4. No data on location of trial / environmental conditions
5. I assume there was no statistical analysis possible for a house v house trial
To draw any conclusions from such a poorly reported trial is virtually impossible

To answer your questions: Commercial Feed was applied into the trials. Feed formulation was not altered and additionally applied the product into drinking system. The climate in Taiwan is usually hot and humid that result in heat stress and causing mortality. Both trials were conducted in summer and the high/low temp was 36.7/23 during the period. Dramatic temperature difference made high mortality that housed in 3rd floor of trial 1. Compared to broiler, Taiwan native chickens is a very active and aggressive bird that are raised in backyards and has to be raised to maturity at least for 11th week. From the time, farmer will catch mature chicken for selling till 18th week. Stress from high temperature and chasing-catching contributed to mortality of trial 2.
The reason why you have confusions and doubts may be caused by the differences of climate and geographical environment between Germany and Taiwan.
All the data were actually collected from our customers, and there were many positive feedbacks afterwards, so we decided to share this result on Engormix.

Thank you for the message, please find replies as below.
1.All the data of the field trial were feedback from our customers and the selling-weight record in the market.
2.As the customer claims that the rearing house is too old to make thermoregulator work well and results in poor performance of 3-floor.
Regards
