Published: August 13, 2012
Summary
The gut microflora is part of the digestive system and influences FCR and the economic performance of broilers.

I am conducting more than 20 trials of B-Safe in different cities of Pakistan. I have got three unofficial reports from the farmers and waiting for comprehensive report. How ever in preliminary report, effect of B-Safe so encouraging, it reduces the mortality, increases weight gain and decreases FCR.

On one broiler farm in Okara, its effect on Enteritis is astonishing, Farmer had three sheds, 30,000 each, he used B-safe on such farm, where he experienced Enteritis in every rearing, he told us, and in this shed, he got astonishing results against Enteritis.
B-Safe is a very good product in Pakistan market, where digestive tract originative problems are so many.

A very interesting and enlightening article that highlights the importance of gut health in poultry. Many poultry people take poor gut health very lightly as a routine affair and do not realize the importance of doing something about it. Can I request the author to kindly throw some more light on what she calls calls 'DYSBACTREIOSIS' ?

To Leo Antony : Dysbacteriosis refers to an imbalance of the microbial flora. Within this article it is the gut microflora. As it is written, we don’t know the exact composition of this flora but, when some bacteria as Campylobacter or Clostridium increase in the digestive tract, there is a change in the flora balance and there is a risk of intestinal mucosa damages and intestinal motility changes. The results of this dysbacteriosis can be a lower nutrients absorption and thus lower performances and profitability.
