Early Feeding

Animal nutrition is constantly evolving, especially when it comes to productivity management, and we have seen great genetic progress in recent years. The broiler’s intestine is complex and its health is crucial in maximising performance. Gut health is about the balance between diet, proper digestion/absorption, stable and beneficial microbiota and the effective immune status of the gut. To reach high body weight gain and healthy growth, it is crucial to improve feed efficiency with an optimum nutrition program, especially in the early stages. Recent studies have shown that chicks that have early access to feed and water, either in the hatchery or in the barn, resulted in higher body weights and fewer footpad lesions in later life. Our 3 expert speakers will share their latest knowledge in how to give your chick the best start in life. Sign up for this free webinar now!
