Extract your hidden feed potential

Feed costs represent 60-70% of total production expenses in live animal production, making it the most significant factor in profitability. However, the key is to achieve the right balance between feed cost and performance, which relies on nutrient density and raw material inclusion rates.

Key areas to focus on for profitability include selecting optimal raw materials, precisely defining animal requirements, adjusting feed additive strategies, and refining phase feeding programs. By quantifying, staying agile, and anticipating changes, producers can enhance feed efficiency and maintain profitability.

Swine

Our 3-steps approach:

1/Monitor: measure and analyze your raw materials

In swine nutrition, precise monitoring of feed ingredients is crucial for achieving optimal performance. By using tools like MycoMan, nutritionists can track and manage mycotoxin contamination in raw materials, ensuring that swine diets remain safe and balanced. Accurate feed ingredients analyses using PNE help to determine the true energy and nutrient values of the ingredients, which is especially important when sourcing alternative ingredients due to supply chain challenges.

2/Manage: Implement formulation strategies to extract the hidden feed potential

Once the nutritional value of ingredients is identified, feed formulation strategies can be tailored to meet pigs’ needs at all growth stages. Adisseo promotes low-protein diets to reduce crude protein in the feed. To maintain expected performance, free amino acids like Rhodimet® are added to these diets. This approach improves nutrient digestibility and bioavailability, reduces nitrogen excretion, lowers costs, and enhances environmental sustainability. A second strategy is the promotion of the Net Energy system, which allows perfect alignment between feed energy and pigs’ requirements.

3/Maximize: Optimize nutrient utilization

Ensuring that pigs can effectively digest and utilize the nutrients in their feed leads to improved growth and performance. By addressing fiber indigestibility with Rovabio®, nutritionists can help swine fully benefit from their diet, leading to better nutrient absorption and improved overall performance. This approach not only supports better growth and health but also promotes more sustainable farming practices, contributing to reduced resource use and improved environmental outcomes in swine production.

Poultry

Our 3-steps approach:

1/Monitor: measure and analyze your raw materials

In poultry nutrition, the first step is to accurately assess the nutritional content of feed ingredients using advanced tools like PNE (NIR) platform and ADICT. The PNE platform offers accurate quantitative models for NIR analysis of feed ingredients. These models are developed using precise wet chemical testing and in vivo experiments. ADICT, fills the gap existing between analytical results and the formulation program. Adict integrates customers’ analytical results and use them to create a new ingredient matrix, based on the actual quality of the raw materials.
This precise monitoring ensures that the right ingredients are selected, contributing to balanced and safe poultry diets, especially when dealing with variations in ingredient quality.

2/Manage: Implement formulation strategies to extract the hidden feed potential

With accurate feed analysis, nutritionists can then design formulation strategies that maximize nutrient extraction from the feed.
A key strategy is the implementation of low-protein diets, which reduces the crude protein content while supplementing free amino acids like Rhodimet® to maintain performance. Lowering protein levels helps reduce nitrogen excretion, minimizing environmental impact without sacrificing bird health. Another important strategy is using the Net Energy system to closely match the energy needs of poultry, optimizing diet formulation to improve feed efficiency and animal growth. This approach allows for more efficient nutrient use and can contribute to reduced feed costs.

3/Maximize: Optimize nutrient utilization

With poultry diets often high in cereals containing indigestible fibers, the Rovabio® enzyme range is essential for breaking down these components and boosting nutrient absorption.
Adisseo also focuses on improving fat digestion through the use of FRA® LeciMax, which optimizes energy utilization.
