Its primary function is to control the flow and safety of substances absorbed from the digestive system before the distribution of these substances […]
When More is Too Much? Mineral Overload in Dairy Cattle
Introduction Mineral nutrition plays an essential role in maintaining health, productivity, and reproductive performance in dairy cattle. Macro-minerals (Ca, P, Mg, Na, Cl, K, S) and trace minerals (Cu, Zn, Mn, Se, Fe, l, Co) support majorly in bone development, enzyme & hormone function, Immune health, reproduction, and milk production. While the prevention of mineral […]
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? The chances are your flocks are infected with mycoplasma in poultry. What is mycoplasma in poultry? Mycoplasma in poultry is a disease caused by […]
Calcium Homeostasis in Ruminants: Mechanisms and Challenges
Calcium plays a critical role in a wide array of physiological functions in ruminants, including muscle contraction, nerve transmission, enzyme activity, and milk production. As such, the regulation of calcium levels—known as calcium homeostasis—is vital for animal health, especially during periods of high demand such as late gestation and early lactation. Maintaining calcium homeostasis […]
Understanding Negative Energy Balance in Cattle and Effective Treatment with Gluca-Boost
In modern dairy farming, maintaining the energy balance of high-yielding cows—especially during early lactation—is a constant challenge. Negative Energy Balance in cattle arises when the animal’s energy demand for milk production exceeds its dietary intake. This imbalance can severely impact health, fertility, and productivity if left unaddressed. What is Negative Energy Balance in Cattle? […]
Artificial Intelligence in Poultry Farming: Revolutionizing the Industry
Poultry farming is undergoing a remarkable transformation, driven by the integration of artificial intelligence (AI). From improving operational efficiency to promoting sustainable practices, AI is reshaping how poultry operations are managed and optimized. This article explores the key contributions of artificial intelligence in poultry farming, highlighting its impact on productivity, animal welfare, and innovation across […]
Heat Stress in Swine and the Role of Phytogenics
Heat stress is a persistent challenge for swine producers, particularly in tropical and sub-tropical regions where high temperatures and humidity frequently exceed the pig’s thermoneutral range. Unlike other livestock species, pigs have limited sweat glands and rely primarily on respiration and behavioural adjustments to dissipate heat. As a result, even moderate rises in environmental temperature […]
How Plant-Based Feed Additives Boost Immunity in Pigs
In modern swine production, maintaining a strong immune system in pigs is crucial for ensuring optimal health, growth performance, and overall productivity. With increasing concerns over antibiotic resistance and consumer demand for natural alternatives, plant-based feed additives, commonly known as phytogenics, have gained significant attention. These natural compounds, derived from herbs, spices, and other botanical […]
High Stocking Density and Broiler Behaviour: Striking the Right Balance
In modern poultry production, achieving optimal efficiency while maintaining flock health is a delicate balance. One of the critical factors influencing broiler efficiency and performance is stocking density—the number of birds housed per unit of space. While increasing stocking density can improve production efficiency and profitability, it can also have significant impacts on broiler behaviour, […]
Rumen Acidosis in Cattle: Causes, Symptoms, Treatment, and Prevention
Rumen acidosis is a significant metabolic disease in cattle. While some animals exhibit clinical signs, many others experience sub-clinical acidosis, which can lead to decreased productivity and long-term health issues. What is Rumen Acidosis? Acidosis in cattle occurs when the rumen pH drops below 5.5 (normal pH ranges between 6.5 and 7.0). In severe cases, […]
Calving in Cows: A Comprehensive Guide to Stages, Symptoms, and Treatment
Calving in cows is crucial in cattle management, influencing herd productivity and profitability. A successful calving process ensures healthy calves and minimizes complications for the cow. Understanding the stages of calving, recognizing signs of calving in cows, and knowing the appropriate calving in cow treatment strategies can significantly improve outcomes. This comprehensive guide covers everything […]
Understanding Stress in Pigs: Causes and Management
Stress in pigs can stem from various factors, with its impact depending on how the animal adapts. It can either lead to negative outcomes or serve as a means of resilience and conditioning. Stress typically progresses through three stages: mobilization (alarm reaction), resistance or adaptation, and exhaustion. Heat and Cold Stress Temperature extremes significantly affect […]
Things to know about lumpy skin disease in cattle
Lumpy Skin Disease in cattle (LSD) is a viral illness affecting the cattle. Lumpy Skin Disease (LSD) is caused by the Capripoxvirus, which belongs to the Poxviridae family.
