NEWS FEED & ADDITIVE MAGAZINE February 2025 23 The Georgia Peanut Commission (GPC) promoted peanuts as a poultry feed ingredient at IPPE 2025. According to GPC, Georgia is the No. 1 producing state for broilers and peanuts and ranks 6th in egg production. In recent years, GPC has funded research conducted by Dr. Ondulla Toomer with the United States Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Research Service examining the use of unblanched high-oleic peanuts as a preferred alternate feed ingredient in layer and broiler diets. The feeding trials have resulted in a premium quality, nutritionally enriched end product. IPPE is one of the world’s largest annual displays of technology, equipment, supplies and services used in the production of processing eggs, meat and poultry and those involved in feed manufacturing. The Georgia Peanut Commission was established in 1961 under the Commodities Promotion Act and conducts programs in the areas of promotion, research and education. Peanuts are a $2.2 billion industry in Georgia, GPC states, where more than 50 percent of the nation’s peanut crop is produced annually.

Amlan’s booth featured cutting-edge feed additives aimed at enhancing poultry health and productivity, with live-streamed demonstrations of the binding power and unique mineral properties of Amlan’s mineral technology. NeutraPath®, Amlan’s breakthrough natural pathogen control solution available in select international markets, was prominently featured at the expo with an oral presentation of new research. This innovative feed additive combines essential oils, fatty acids, and Amlan’s proprietary mineral technology to neutralize pathogenic bacteria, improve intestinal health, and provide poultry producers with a natural, effective alternative for pathogen control, according to Amlan’s statement. Dr. Anthony Quant, Ph.D., Senior Poultry Nutritionist at Kalmbach Nutritional Services, presented research at the International Poultry Scientific Forum (IPSF), showcasing NeutraPath’s efficacy as a feed additive for broilers challenged with necrotic enteritis. This presentation highlighted the beneficial performance impacts of NeutraPath when used to counter one of the most prevalent challenges poultry producers face globally. The oral abstract on T83, Evaluating the Effect of Dietary Supplementation of NeutraPath® and Tribasic Copper Chloride on the Growth Performance of Ross 308 Broilers Exposed to a Necrotic Enteritis Challenge, was presented on January 28, 2025. In addition, Amlan sponsored the presentation of new research on the impact of feed additives on broiler performance when exposed to a necrotic enteritis challenge at an upcoming educational TECHTalk. The oral presentation, titled, “Enhancing Broiler Productivity: Nutritional Programs to Safeguard Intestinal Health from Common Pathogens,” was delivered by Dr. Gino Lorenzoni, Associate Professor of Poultry Science and Avian Health at Penn State University.
