MARKET REPORT FEED & ADDITIVE MAGAZINE April 2025 89 pathogens such as Salmonella and E. coli, promote beneficial gut microbiota (e.g. Lactobacillus) and improve gut barrier function. All these positive effects, which support gut integrity and immune function, contribute to improved growth rates in animals. Some organic acids even improve the palatability of feed, leading to increased voluntary feed consumption. By optimising digestive conditions, organic acids improve protein digestibility and nutrient intake, contributing to better feed conversion rates (FCR) and overall animal performance. Organic acids also provide important advantages in terms of antibiotic use and environmental issues, which are among the most important problems of today. Serving as effective alternatives to antibiotic growth promoters, organic acids contribute to the reduction of nitrogen and phosphorus excretion and environmental pollution by improving nutrient utilisation. In conclusion, organic acids play a crucial role in modern animal nutrition, offering a natural and effective way to maintain feed quality, improve gut health, enhance performance and reduce reliance on antibiotics. Their versatile benefits make them valuable additives in the quest for sustainable and efficient animal production.
