Alternative feed additives have promising importance in broiler production due to the ban on the use of certain antibiotics. The most used antibiotic alternatives in broiler production are phytogenics, organic acids, prebiotics, probiotics, enzymes, and their derivatives. Antibiotic alternatives have been reported to increase feed intake, stimulate digestion, improve feed efficiency, increase growth performance, and reduce the incidence of diseases by modulating the intestinal microbiota and immune system, inhibiting pathogens, and improving intestinal integrity. Simply, the gut microbiota is the target to raise the health benefits and growth-promoting effects of feed additives on broilers. Therefore, naturally available feed additives are promising antibiotic alternatives for broilers.

Experts from Hankkija Finnish Feed Innovations share their points of view about how a natural resin acids product improves gut integrity and performance of animals...
Birds are omnivorous species, they are evolutionarily designed to consume products from plant and animal origin. However, for several reasons, poultry nutrition is shifting more and more to a vegetable diet. This shift has resulted in losing some important benefits of animal products, including creatine, an essential com-pound found in meat but not in plants. A feed ingredient survey conducted at AlzChem showed that creatine values found for meat meal (n=38) or fish meal...
Reducing limitations in intracellular energy metabolism and improving cellular energy homeostasis can maximise the feed utilisation efficiency in broilers. Optimising the creatine stores by supplementing guanidinoacetic acid (Creamino) can maximise performance, a study shows. Could you improve the profitability of production by adding Creamino on top of an application or energy-saving effect? And would this make a valuable contribution to reducing the impact of currently...

The APIs market in November generally remained stable, continuing the lingering trend since August. Supply-side costs are rising, while deals are constrained by downstream demand. Downstream purchases are still subject to the actual need, and there needs more confidence and willingness to stock up and build the position. The supply-demand game has been held this month. It is expected that the recent market trend will continue oscillation and consolidation and need a solid new factor to break...

With a rich history built on more than a century of poultry domestication and study, the modern poultry industry continues to expand its knowledge and mastery of avian care and finding innovative areas of research that help increase the overall success of the industry. These research developments and related topics will be discussed at the International Poultry Scientific Forum (IPSF), held in conjunction with the 2023 International Production & Processing Expo (IPPE) in...
INTRODUCTION Footpad dermatitis (FPD) is present in many different types of broiler production systems. In 1 study, Pagazaurtundua and Warriss (2006) estimated prevalence of FPD ranged from 9.6 to 98.1% depending on the housing system used. This common issue has a large impact on growers because the presence of FPD is associated with decreased live weight and leg meat yield and increased carcass condemnations (Hashimoto et al., 2013). These condemnations can have a massive...

A few years back, it was discovered that in-feed coniferous resin acids support gut integrity and luminal homeostasis in the intestinal mucosa of broiler chickens by reducing inflammation-associated degradation of collagen. This very positive, direct effect on intestinal tissue manifests as improved bird performance and reduced abundance of inflammatory T-cells in gut mucosa. Such a mechanism-of-action has not been discovered for any other feed ingredient or natural feed...
(This paper was presented at AFMA’s annual symposium on 11 October 2006). Soybeans and its by-products, Soybean Oil and Soybean meal continue to maintain a pace of increased production due to worldwide demand. The USDA World Agricultural Supply and Demand report for September 2006 states that…”for 2005/2006 strong demand for soybeans and soybean meal raises exports and crush and lowers ending stocks”. Expectations for this year’s soybean crop are in the order of 83...
