Category details: Poultry supplements

The importance of supplements for poultry stems from the fact that proper nutrition can significantly affect their growth, development, immune system, and reproductive performance. Supplements help to ensure that poultry receives all the necessary nutrients to maintain body condition, growth, and development and to strengthen the immune system, which reduces the risk of disease and increases resistance to stress. For example, adding minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, zinc, and selenium is essential for developing strong bones, eggshells, and muscles and improving the reproductive performance of poultry. Vitamins such as vitamin A, D, E, and B complex are necessary for properly functioning metabolic processes, growth and development of the body, and immune response. Probiotics and prebiotics can improve digestion and nutrient absorption and reduce the risk of digestive problems such as diarrhea, flatulence, and wind. Enzymes, on the other hand, can aid in the breakdown and digestion of feed, improving the efficiency of digestion and the digestibility of nutrients. Poultry supplements are essential in intensive farming systems where animals are exposed to high stress, strain, and disease risk. Proper nutrition, including appropriate supplements, can help reduce disease risk, improve poultry health and welfare, and increase farm profitability and productivity.
