Mike Persia (Virginia Tech) talks about the benefits of Direct-Fed Microbials (also Sulfur Amino Acid supplementation) to help manage the adverse effects of heat stress, in this interview during IPPE 2023 in Atlanta, USA.
Mineral Supplements are deficient during the heat stress because of low digestion Giving Miaphos for 3 days for 2 times in broiler, once a month to the layer and in Breeder for 5 Days a month through drinking water will support birds for mineral deficiency that will help in lameness in broilers and for egg shell issues (layer/Breeder).
Poultry experiencing heat stress due to panting can experience mineral loss, particularly sodium, potassium, and phosphorus. Panting increases carbon dioxide loss, leading to respiratory alkalosis, which can disrupt mineral balance and increase mineral excretion.
At this stage, Mineral supplements through water will be immediately absorbed, and the deficiency can be removed.
