NEWS FEED & ADDITIVE MAGAZINE July 2024 9 Adisseo, one of the global leaders in animal nutrition and health, launched Secure Performance program. According to the company's statement, this innovative initiative addresses the resilience of poultry and swine in fluctuating and challenging contexts. In modern poultry farming, bacterial infections pose a significant threat to flock health. Adisseo emphasizes that it is commitment to addressing this challenge by developing effective prevention strategies to manage bacterial pressure and improve overall flock health. Similarly, swine farming faces persistent challenges such as temperature fluctuations, high-density environments, and emerging pathogens, which worsens the negative impact of bacteria. Additionally, the restrictions on antibiotic use further complicate pathogen management strategies at farm level. One approach to securing performance in challenging conditions is enhancing animal resilience. Adisseo reveals that it leverages its scientific and technical expertise to support poultry and swine customers in building resilience to thrive through challenges. By implementing tailored feed supplements strategies that ensure safer feed, and bolster gut health and immunity, the company works to significantly reduce the incidence and severity of bacterial infections in poultry populations. Julie Duong, Poultry Customer Solution Manager at Adisseo, emphasizes that: “Our Secure Performance program is dedicated to promoting efficient and responsible poultry farming through antibiotic reduction practices. By enhancing poultry resilience against bacterial pressure, Adisseo aims to ensure the health and productivity of poultry populations.” Read more>> Adisseo reveals its program for animal resilience Kemin Industries, a global ingredient manufacturer, announced the launch of CholiGEM™, an advanced rumen-protected choline supplement designed to address fatty liver and ketosis in lactating dairy cows, into the U.S. dairy market. Choline—one of the foundational ingredients of CholiGEM—is an essential nutrient for dairy cows with multiple functions for optimal milk production, reproduction, and health, especially during the critical transition period. It improves metabolic functions of the liver and increases milk fat yield and milk protein, Kemin explains. "Research shows that 50 – 60% of post-calving cows experience moderate to severe fatty liver," said Fei Sun, Ph.D., P.A.S., Dairy Marketing Manager, Kemin Animal Nutrition and Health – North America. "But if we can optimize liver health during the transition phase, we can significantly reduce metabolic disorders that compromise not only production, but overall animal health. That's where choline chloride, the key ingredient of CholiGEM, can help." According to a statement from Kemin, CholiGEM stands out with a typical 60% choline chloride content—significantly higher than the typical 28% currently available on the market. This higher content ensures a more flexible diet formulation during the critical transition period. Its superior bioavailability supports reducing fatty liver risks and ketosis occurrences, thereby enhancing overall dairy cow well-being pre- and post-calving.
