Future Trends of Choline in Animal Nutrition
Chemically known as 2-hydroxyethyltrimethylammonium, choline is an organic compound which is a colourless ammonium salt, highly soluble in water. Choline, neither a vitamin nor a mineral, is a vital nutrient required for normal body functions. Choline was once grouped with Vitamin B, however, choline does not fit the standard of a vitamin, and it does […]
Stabilizing the flow: How digestion and metabolism drive milk production in dairy cattle
Introduction Efficient digestion and metabolic processes in dairy cows drive both milk production volume and component quality. A healthy microbial fermentation in the rumen enables optimal nutrient extraction, while well-regulated metabolism ensures the conversion of these nutrients into milk constituents like fat, protein, and lactose. Rumen Microbial Digestion: Foundation of Nutrient Supply The rumen microbiome […]
COMBATING HEAT STRESS PROBLEMS IN COWS WITH ENERGY SUPPLEMENTATION
A dairy cow’s environment is defined by air temperature, relative humidity, thermal radiation and air velocity which influence its body temperature. T he changes brought about by the animal’s physiology are attributed to the above-mentioned factors, which are linked to a thermal environment. Hence, the three fundamentals of dairy farming – health, production and reproduction […]
Understanding the Impact of NSP (Non-Starch Polysaccharides) in Poultry Nutrition
Poultry production has evolved significantly over the years, with increasing focus on optimizing feed efficiency, gut health, and performance. One critical nutritional factor influencing all these parameters is Non-Starch Polysaccharides (NSPs). Present in common feed ingredients such as wheat, barley, oats, and soybean meal, NSPs play a complex role in poultry nutrition, affecting both nutrient […]
The Hidden Threat in Poultry Production: Leaky Gut Explained
In recent years, Leaky Gut Syndrome (LGS) has emerged as a silent disruptor in poultry health and productivity. Also known as intestinal permeability, this condition refers to the compromised integrity of the intestinal lining, which allows harmful substances like toxins, bacteria, and undigested feed particles to pass into the bloodstream. While the term is commonly […]
Understanding Foot and Mouth Disease in Cattle: Causes, Symptoms, and Prevention
Foot and mouth disease in cattle is one of the most contagious viral illnesses affecting cloven-hoofed animals, including cows, pigs, sheep, and goats. Caused by the foot and mouth disease virus in cattle, this disease poses a major threat to animal health and the livestock industry due to its rapid spread and economic implications. What […]
Waterborne diseases in poultry: Water Quality in Poultry
Water is a vital yet often overlooked component of poultry production. While much attention is paid to feed formulation and housing, the quality of water provided to birds plays an equally significant role in maintaining flock health and optimizing productivity. Contaminated water can serve as a vehicle for numerous pathogens, leading to waterborne diseases that […]
Understanding Avian Influenza in Poultry: Risks and Preventive Measures
Avian influenza in poultry continues to be a major threat to the global poultry industry, affecting animal health, food security, and trade. Also known as bird flu, this highly contagious viral disease is caused by the avian influenza virus in poultry, primarily of the subtypes H5, H7, and H9. While outbreaks can vary in severity, […]
Mycoplasma in Poultry: Symptoms, Treatment, Prevention (Know It All)
Have you ever seen an entire flock of birds suffering from sneezing, coughing, and discharging nasal mucus, conjunctivitis with a sudden drop in egg production, or a poor growth rate?
