Feed is the basis of the poultry farming industry, accounting for 65%-70% of the total cost of farming. Poultry feed is mostly made of corn and soybean meal and other grains and grain processing by-products as the main raw materials. In the context of global population growth and food shortage due to climate change, the conflict between supply and demand of feed resources is bound to intensify, seriously threatening the sustainable development of poultry farming.
Currently, some poultry feeds in the market lack nutrition, and some misuse antibiotics, which seriously affects the taste and nutrition of poultry meat and eggs. Lifeasible can improve existing conventional feed resources and develop resources for non-conventional feeds, including feed additives, to meet your diverse needs. We are committed to providing poultry feed development solutions that contain both essential elements and active ingredients that are easy to digest and accumulate in the meat and eggs.
Reducing poultry feed costs with enzymes
Poultry feeding programs often use multiple types of enzymes, either individually or in combination. Each enzyme has a specific role in feed digestion. We can use enzymes to reduce poultry feed costs, including the use of amylase, protease, cellulase, and phytase.
Establishing a net energy system for poultry
Understanding and mastering the nutritional value of feed ingredients, and the rational formulation of livestock and poultry rations is the key to giving full play to livestock and poultry production performance and controlling feed costs. Therefore, assessing the nutritional value of feed materials is an extremely important basic work. We have established the poultry net energy system, which can accurately evaluate the effective energy value of alternative feed ingredients and provide a technical platform for the development of non-conventional feeds (low protein feeds, etc.).
| Broiler |
We have developed prediction equations for the metabolizable energy of maize, wheat, barley, and broiler chickens, comparing the metabolizable energy of maize by in vivo and in vitro methods, and comparing the metabolizable energy values of maize in different broiler breeds. |
| Waterfowl |
We can use the bionic digestion system to estimate the metabolizable energy of feed ingredients for meat ducks, as well as the digestible amino acids and metabolizable energy of rapeseed meal, corn processing by-products, and wheat. |
Accurate feed formulation design
By analyzing the whole data of feed ingredients based on the principles of safety and legality, nutritional balance, physiological adaptability and economy, high quality of livestock and poultry products, and environmental protection, we can fully exploit the potential nutritional value of feeds and thus make precise nutritional formulations for animals possible. Through precise nutritional formulation, we have been able to make a large number of unconventional feed ingredients widely used in poultry farming, thus reducing feed costs and breeding costs for our customers.
- Designed target animals. We analyze the breed, sex, and physiological stage of the target animal, as well as the expected target value of the feed formulation, and then select the appropriate feeding standard.
- Determine precise nutritional standards. Different animals have different priorities for nutrient needs, we will focus on the screening of feed nutrition level indicators according to your needs.
- Selecting the best feed ingredients. Different animals and different growth stages of animals will be considered.
- Precise nutrient values of raw materials. The content of each nutrient of the selected raw material will be determined by consulting the latest table of nutritional values of feed ingredients. Based on this, we also consider how to rate the feed nutrients and take the values that best meet the requirements of precise nutritional formulations.
- Select the appropriate formula calculation method. We commonly use traditional manual algorithms and modern computer-operated algorithms.
Lifeasible is a pioneer in the current field of poultry nutrition and feed science research, providing proven novel feed combinations for poultry farming worldwide and introducing new natural mineral-based feed additive development solutions for our customers to meet their needs for high-quality poultry raised without antibiotics.
