Improve Sustainability in Your Poultry Operation Without Sacrificing Performance

Environmentally sustainable poultry production starts by reducing excess nutrients in the diet. Doing so prevents them from being wasted via excretion while maintaining performance and health status of the flock. High trace mineral inclusion in commercial diets has become a target for more sustainable animal production. With that objective in mind, several research experiments were conducted to further understand the effects of decreasing total mineral supplementation levels in diets with complete or partial substitution of inorganic minerals with Zinpro Performance Minerals®.

Improve Epithelial Integrity to Keep BCO Out of Your Flock

When a bird’s epithelial tissue is weakened, bacteria and other antigens can pass into the body. This can lead to several health conditions – including bacterial chondronecrosis and osteomyelitis (BCO). This condition occurs when harmful bacteria in the bloodstream settle in microfractures between growth plates and the articular cartilage of the femur, tibia and flexible thoracic vertebrae, leading to micro-abscesses and necrosis. This is part 3 of a 4-part series exploring how epithelial integrity is the first line of defense to target immunomodulation, BCO and food safety issues.
