Application and Development of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens in Animal Husbandry
Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, belonging to the genus Bacillus, is a Gram positive bacterium with a short rod-shaped appearance. It is named Bacillus amyloliquefaciens because it can produce amylase to decompose starch. This strain has the characteristics of high bacterial content, high activity, and strong stability. After application, it can significantly improve the disease resistance of crops and promote yield increase. As a beneficial microorganism, it not only plays an important role in agriculture, but also demonstrates potential in animal husbandry; Not only can it improve the health status of livestock and poultry, but it also helps to enhance the quality of livestock products.
Promote the Health of Livestock and Poultry
Bacillus amyloliquefaciens can promote the health of livestock and poultry. This strain has the ability to inhibit the growth of some pathogenic bacteria, forming beneficial microbial communities in the intestines of livestock and poultry, helping to maintain the balance of intestinal microbiota, improve the digestion and absorption capacity of livestock and poultry, and reduce dependence on antibiotics. This will help to reduce the incidence rate of livestock and poultry, improve the level of growth and development, and thus improve the health status of livestock and poultry.
Prevention and Control of Intestinal Diseases
Bacillus amyloliquefaciens can compete with harmful bacteria in the intestinal tract of livestock and poultry for nutrients and living space, reducing the growth and reproduction of harmful bacteria, thereby reducing the risk of livestock and poultry diseases. Especially for some livestock and poultry that are prone to intestinal diseases, the application of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens can be used as a preventive measure to improve their immunity and resistance.
Improve Feed Utilization Efficiency
Bacillus amyloliquefaciens can decompose complex polysaccharides such as cellulose and starch in feed, releasing beneficial nutrients and improving feed utilization. This not only reduces the waste of feed resources, but also lowers the cost of livestock and poultry breeding, while improving the growth rate and meat quality of livestock and poultry.
Improve Digestive Function
Bacillus amyloliquefaciens can produce beneficial substances such as digestive enzymes and vitamins, which help promote the digestion and absorption function of livestock and poultry. It can improve the health status of intestinal mucosa, enhance intestinal barrier function, reduce nutrient loss, and improve feed utilization efficiency.
