Main Advantages of Adding Feed Probiotics to Animal Feed Part 1
In the vast world of modern agriculture, feed serves as a bridge connecting crops and livestock breeding, and its quality and effectiveness directly affect the efficiency and output of the breeding industry. In the recent couple of decades, with the advancement of biotechnology, Feed Probiotics have become a popular choice to help increase the quality, effectiveness, efficiency, and yield of the Animal Husbandry industry.
Below are some of the main advantages and functions of adding Feed Probiotics to animal feed:
1、 Promote Digestion and Absorption & Improve Feed Utilization Efficiency
Probiotics in microbial feed additives, such as lactic acid bacteria and yeast, can secrete various digestive enzymes to help animals break down complex substances in feed that are difficult to directly absorb, such as cellulose and hemicellulose. These enzymes act on feed ingredients, making it easier for nutrients to be absorbed and utilized by animal intestines, thereby significantly improving the conversion and utilization rate of feed. In addition, Feed Probiotics can regulate the balance of animal intestinal microbiota, enhance intestinal mucosal barrier function, reduce the occurrence of intestinal diseases, and indirectly promote the absorption of nutrients.
2、 Enhance Immunity and Improve Animal Health
Feed Probiotics maintain intestinal health by competitively inhibiting harmful bacteria in the gut, reducing their quantity and activity. At the same time, probiotics can activate the body's immune system, promote the proliferation and differentiation of immune cells, and enhance animal immunity. This immune enhancing effect not only helps to resist the invasion of foreign pathogens, but also provides additional protection for animals under stress, reduces the occurrence of diseases, lowers the use of veterinary drugs, and improves breeding efficiency.
3、 Improve the Breeding Environment and Reduce Pollution Emissions
Feed Probiotics can also indirectly promote the improvement of the breeding environment by improving the quality of animal excrement. Feed Probiotics can decompose and utilize some difficult to digest substances in animal bodies, reduce the content of harmful gases such as ammonia nitrogen and hydrogen sulfide in feces, and lower the odor of feces. This not only reduces air pollution in the breeding farm, but also reduces the difficulty and cost of subsequent manure treatment. At the same time, Feed Probiotics can promote the complete utilization of animal feed, reduce the emission of organic matter in feces, and have important significance for protecting the ecological environment.
