Over the years, US poultry farming has evolved into a leading global food-producing industry. However, it faces various challenges, including the wooden breast condition in broilers. In this episode, Dr. Majid Shakeri from the USDA shares his research on this critical issue. The woody breast...
Reducing the particle size of feed ingredients requires significant energy expenditure. When it comes to research on the subject, corn and wheat have been considered in most studies, but there is limited investigation on soybean meal. With that in mind, in this episode, Dr. John Boney discusses...
To reduce the presence of pathogenic bacteria, poultry feed can be pelleted at high temperatures and extended times. However, as conditioning temperature and time increase, amino acid conformation may change, thus reducing its digestibility and consequently affecting bird performance. In this...
Welcome to the Poultry Nutrition Blackbelt Podcast. Today, we are introduced to a new host who will be accompanying us along our ongoing series, Dr. Pratima Adhikari. In this episode, we engage in a fun and insightful conversation, discussing various aspects of Dr. Adhikari's expertise and...
Animals strongly rely on their microbiome, which mainly consists of bacteria, for digestion. Therefore, it plays a significant role in the regulation of their physiology and in the behavior of their gastrointestinal tract – in other words, in their overall health. That makes it essential...
Lipids play an essential role in organ development and perinatal growth. Functional omega-3 fatty acids, such as α-linoleic acid and docosahexaenoic acid, may improve chick quality and growth performance. In this episode, Dr. Aizwarya (Ash) Thanabalan explains her research, which involved...
When it comes to fibrous diets, exogenous enzymes (like xylanase) are crucial for improving nutrient utilization and enhancing broiler growth performance. Additionally, xylooligosaccharides are currently being studied as potential prebiotics that provide several beneficial effects, such as...
