Every year the marketing age of broilers decreases by an average of 0.75 days for the same performance. This trend is likely to continue in the same direction for the coming years. Nutrition plays a vital role in enabling this improvement. As the feed cost represents an expensive input (~70-80% of broiler production cost), the poultry producer should be aware of the dynamics of the feed in its in...
Now a days 30 days growing system gaining popularity in broiler as feed cost is high control shed farmers demanding more dense feed from feed mill owners
Formulation for broiler or layer is with charges its very stunning to ask it free from any professional because its his or her bread and butter.

Broilers should have a feed that has between 22 – 24% digestible crude protein, DCP. You should add 10-20 grams each of toxin binder, coccidiostat and growth enhancers like zinc bacitracin.
This thread reflects a much-needed shift in thinking — from relying heavily on AGPs to adopting more sustainable, health-focused poultry feed additives. The concern around antibiotic resistance is very real, and I appreciate the insights shared here on responsible usage, biosecurity, and alternative approaches.
One thing that stood out to me while reviewing global developments is the growing role of precision feed additives and next-gen probiotics in poultry nutrition.
Along with organic acids, enzymes, and essential oils, these newer probiotic strains — when selected carefully and supported with good litter management and vaccination — can play a pivotal role in moving towards antibiotic-free poultry. Especially in environments with biosecurity challenges, supplementing with heat-stable probiotics or synergistic blends (like Bacillus coagulans paired with enzyme systems) can offer performance without compromising flock health.
I believe the future lies in integrated approaches — smart formulation + pathogen control + gut health modulation. Would love to know if anyone here has used postbiotic-based feed supplements in tropical or high-altitude conditions, and how they compared against conventional AGP-supported formulations in terms of growth uniformity and early mortality?
Appreciate all the experience and expertise shared here — it’s encouraging to see how global perspectives are converging towards safer, efficient, and sustainable poultry nutrition.
