Abstract

The paper presents the experimental results using organic acid complexes BiSAlTek, Ecacid and NeoTerm in the diet of broiler chickens of the Cobb 500 cross. The study was carried out in the conditions of the scientific poultry factory of Belgorod State University named after V.Ya. Gorin. There were 4 groups of 100 heads each: I-control, II, III and IV-experimental. As the main diet the chickens of all groups received mixed feed corresponding to the growing periods. In addition to the main diet, the chickens of groups II, III and IV in the periods from 1 to 10 days and from 34 to 38 days of life were given BiSAlTek, Ecacid and NeoTerm acidifiers at the rate of 2.5, 0.5 and 1.5 l/t of water, respectively. The use of additives contributed to a significant, relative to the control, increase in the body weight of chickens of groups II, III and IV by 7.7%; 6.8% and 8.6%, respectively, against the feed cost reduction per 1 kg of the body weight by 8.3%; 7.7% and 9.5%.

Highlights

At the present stage of the domestic economy development the problem of safe feeding for the production of environmentally friendly products is becoming ever more urgent
In industrial poultry farming, veterinary and sanitary measures aimed at protecting farms from the spread of contagious diseases and ensuring their epizootic well-being are important
BiSAlTek acidifier is a liquid additive of LLC TeknoFeed, which represents the combination of organic acids, copper (0.16%) and water

Summary

Introduction

At the present stage of the domestic economy development the problem of safe feeding for the production of environmentally friendly products is becoming ever more urgent. There is an increasing number of enterprises declaring the safety of meat and eggs as their main competitive advantage. In this regard, in industrial poultry farming, veterinary and sanitary measures aimed at protecting farms from the spread of contagious diseases and ensuring their epizootic well-being are important. The specialists, including through the diet, develop methods and techniques to activate the body’s protective forces based on natural immunostimulation and immunocorrection. Since in some cases the technology used does not meet modern conditions, the bird is forced to adapt to stress with a high strain on the physiological systems and energy consumption. Growth and development are slowed down, the incidence and mortality of livestock increase
