    Increasing laying persistency & egg hatchability of phase-2 breeders with a natural antioxidant

    Multiple stressors can affect the functioning of body cells, therefore performance and economic profitability of breeder chickens during their production cycle. As opposed to the early laying phase where the intrinsic antioxidant capacity is usually sufficient, birds during Phase...

    Phytogenic feed additives for a more resilient poultry production

    In the last decade, there has been an increased awareness about the risks associated with antimicrobial resistance development and this has resulted in a global trend to reduce or eliminate the use of in-feed antimicrobials in animal production. Phytogenic...

    Can phytogenics have a meaningful effect in coccidiosis control?

    Despite initial skepticism, the growing body of evidence supports the efficacy of phytogenics in supporting coccidiosis control. Tannins and saponins, in particular, have shown significant potential in reducing parasite load, improving intestinal health, and enhancing immune responses. These natural...

    Natural balance: Phytogenics in the gastrointestinal tract – Benefiting from technological progress

    Supporting the development of the gastrointestinal tract and its stabilisation are crucial for efficient digestion but also for a strong immune system. Specific phytogenes can support these processes and contribute to improved performance as well as animal welfare. Semi-coated...

    Phytogenics: Elite feed additives for aquaculture species

    Phytogenics comprise of a relatively infant department of feed additives that are gaining considerable interest within the aquaculture industry. A wide spectrum of phytogenics, particularly those containing terpene and saponin compounds, are increasingly supplemented in aquafeeds, due to their...

    Naturally boosting the bottom line − How timely prevention of respiratory diseases reduces treatment and labour costs
