Vitamin Management

Selected Species

Ensure birds are receiving optimum vitamin nutrition appropriate to their life stage and growing conditions to meet performance and sustainability goals.

Why is it important?

  • Vitamins are essential micronutrients which control nutrient metabolism by facilitating both the synthesis and degradation of nutrients for normal physiological functions such as growth, development, maintenance and reproduction.
  • As the interactions between vitamins for metabolism are interlinked, estimating requirements for each vitamin separately is challenging.
  • During feed processing, vitamin stability directly impacts vitamin bioavailability, efficacy and feed costs.
  • Vitamin bioavailability influences how much of the vitamins fed are being used by the birds and how much is going to waste.

How to maximize the potential?

  • Accurately predict vitamin requirements for poultry life stage by sub-species.
  • Provide high quality, bioavailable vitamins for optimal production and reproduction.

The optimum vitamin nutrition to birds ensures good health, productivity, food quality and nutritional value and can further improve attributes such as immunity, meat quality, bone health, and enrich poultry products.

We recommend ensuring a comprehensive mycotoxin risk management program as baseline in all poultry diets. Precise sustainability measures can help reduce the environmental footprint while ensuring lifetime production. A precision monitoring system using blood biomarkers can help predict the challenges to flock performance.
