Boosting Growth and Profitability Through the Right Feed Supplement for Poultry

News & Blog

Modern poultry production is no longer just about feeding birds — it is about strategic nutrition. The right feed supplement for poultry directly influences growth rate, feed efficiency, immune strength, egg quality, and ultimately farm profitability.

Today, producers face multiple challenges:

  • Rising feed costs
    • Heat and seasonal stress
    • Disease pressure
    • Nutrient variability in raw materials
    • Antibiotic reduction pressure

A scientifically selected feed supplement program ensures birds convert nutrients efficiently while maintaining health and performance.

ABTL offers a wide range of poultry feed supplements for poultry across enzymes, immunomodulators, probiotics, and gut health solutions. In this blog, we are discussing a few key products that demonstrate how targeted supplementation improves both biological and economic outcomes.

IMMUNOTECH FORTE™

Seasonal stress and oxidative damage can reduce feed intake, lower body weight, decrease egg production, and weaken vaccine response.

IMMUNOTECH FORTE™ is formulated with:

  • Systemic enzymes
    • Serratiopeptidase
    • Bromelain
    • Papain
    • Nattokinase
    • Vitamin C
    • Vitamin E
    • Bioflavonoid (Rutin)

Mode of Action

  • Systemic enzymes bind with α-2 macroglobulin and hydrolyze inflammatory mediators such as bradykinin, histamine, and serotonin.
    • Antioxidant vitamins and bioflavonoids scavenge free radicals and reduce oxidative stress.
    • Promotes better immune cell migration and improves gut enzyme activity.

Production Benefits

Broilers:
• Improved body weight gain
• Better feed efficiency
• Higher vaccine titre

Layers:
• Improved egg shell quality
• Improved egg weight
• Better digestibility

Breeders:
• Improved hatchability
• Enhanced overall performance

By controlling inflammation and oxidative stress, IMMUNOTECH FORTE™ helps maintain production consistency during environmental and disease challenges.

 

ADPHOS™

Phosphorus is one of the most expensive nutrients in poultry feed. However, a large portion of plant phosphorus remains bound in phytate form, making it unavailable to birds.

ADPHOS™ is designed to hydrolyze phytate and improve nutrient availability.

Functional Role

  • Breaks down phytic acid
    • Releases bound phosphorus
    • Improves calcium and mineral utilization
    • Enhances protein and energy availability

Performance Impact

  • Better bone mineralization
    • Improved feed conversion ratio
    • Reduced inorganic phosphorus supplementation
    • Lower feed cost per kg of gain
    • Reduced phosphorus excretion, supporting environmental sustainability

By improving nutrient digestibility, ADPHOS™ directly contributes to growth performance and cost efficiency.

 

ACIPLEX™

Gut health is central to nutrient absorption and disease resistance. A stable intestinal pH supports beneficial microflora while inhibiting pathogenic bacteria.

ACIPLEX™ is formulated as an acidifier solution to maintain optimal gut conditions.

Functional Benefits

  • Helps maintain lower gut pH
    • Supports growth of beneficial microflora
    • Controls harmful bacteria
    • Enhances nutrient digestibility

Production Advantages

  • Improved feed intake
    • Better nutrient absorption
    • Stronger intestinal integrity
    • Improved overall flock performance

A balanced gut environment reduces digestive stress and supports better feed conversion, making ACIPLEX™ a valuable addition to poultry feed programs.

 

BG-XYLAN™

BG-XYLAN™ is highly effective product that targets the arabinoxylan fraction in dietary fibre, resulting in improved digestibility and increased profitability.

In typical corn–SBM diets, arabinoxylans form a dominant fraction of non-starch polysaccharides (NSPs), contributing significantly to digesta viscosity. Increased viscosity slows the passage rate of digesta, reduces nutrient diffusion and absorption, and negatively impacts feed efficiency.

Mode of Action:

  • BG-XYLAN™ is an endo-1,4-β-xylanase enzyme
    • Breaks down non-starch polysaccharides (specifically arabinoxylans) in cell walls of feed grains
    • Releases valuable entrapped nutrients for digestion
    • Reduces digesta viscosity
    • Improves nutrient absorption and passage rate

Performance Benefits:

  • Improves Body Weight Gain (BWG)
    • Improves Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR)
    • Reduces gut viscosity and excessive intestinal secretions
    • Improves litter quality and faecal consistency
    • Minimizes negative impact of NSPs
    • Maintains flock uniformity

By reducing NSP-related anti-nutritional effects, BG-XYLAN™ enhances feed value and supports consistent performance across different feed ingredients and production environments.

 

CosBac™

CosBac™ is a uniquely blended, poultry-specific, multi-species synbiotic product that promotes development of beneficial gut microflora through the combined action of selected probiotic microorganisms and prebiotics.

Key Ingredients:

  • Bacillus subtilis (PLSSC) – 5×10⁹ CFU/g
    • Bacillus coagulans (LBSC) – 3×10⁹ CFU/g
    • Lactobacillus acidophilus – 2×10⁹ CFU/g
    • Guaranteed total potency ≥ 1.0×10¹⁰ CFU/g
    • With Prebiotics

Mechanism of Action:

  • Survives pelleting temperature and unfavourable gut conditions (DFM form)
    • Thrives across high and low oxygen environments in the gut
    • Strengthens intestinal mucosal barrier
    • Produces short chain fatty acids (SCFA) such as lactic acid and bacteriocins
    • Produces digestive enzymes including amylase, protease, and lipase
    • Improves humoral immune response by increasing IgA production

Functional Benefits:

  • Promotes optimal development of gut microbiota
    • Reduces pathogenic bacterial load
    • Supports early chick immunity
    • Improves body weight gain and feed conversion
    • Reduces wet litter and pasty vent
    • Lowers early chick morbidity and mortality

By improving microbial balance, barrier function, and digestive efficiency, CosBac™ supports stronger immunity, better nutrient utilization, and improved production consistency.

 

Why the Right Feed Supplement Strategy Matters

The difference between average and high-performing farms often lies in nutritional strategy.

A structured supplementation approach helps:

  • Maximize nutrient release
    • Improve immunity and stress tolerance
    • Enhance gut integrity
    • Reduce feed cost per unit of production
    • Improve overall profitability

Instead of relying on a single additive, combining enzyme technology, immune modulation, and gut health solutions creates a comprehensive performance system.

 

Conclusion

The right feed supplement for poultry is not an expense — it is an investment in growth, uniformity, health, and profitability.

With a wide portfolio of scientifically formulated feed solutions, ABTL Enzymes supports poultry producers in optimizing feed efficiency, improving immune response, and maintaining consistent production performance.
