Feed cost accounts for a substantial expenditure in the poultry farming operations, thus the profitability of farming is closely interlinked to controlling feed costs. The utilization of easily available, alternative feed ingredients can substantially reduce feed costs, but these fibre-rich ingredients make poultry diets more nutritionally complex and challenging. The grain by-products have a higher concentration of anti-nutritional factors than the original grains, thus the inclusion of these by-products reduces the inherent digestibility of valuable nutrients.
The increase in the amount of ANFs in the feed can adversely impact protein digestion and amino acids utilization, which can lead to reduced birds performance and increased environmental pollution.
The optimized enzyme blends target major anti-nutritional factors in the feed such as NSPs, Phytate-Phosphorus, resistant starch and protein fractions thereby increasing their digestibility and effective utilization.
