Abstract
The article presents the results of scientific research on the use of silicon-containing minerals of the Ulyanovsk region deposit as feed additives. The materials prove that Silicon-containing additives based on natural zeolite and diatomite in the feeding of farm animals have a positive effect. The use of silicon-containing additives increases the growth processes in the body of young pigs, strengthens the strength of their bone tissue. Under the influence of application of additives, favorable conditions are created for the activity of cicatritial microflora. The use of application of additives for dairy cows helps to increase their productivity, improve the quality of milk composition, due to the intensive conversion of feed nutrients. The mechanism of Silicon-containing additives is due to the following processes: activation of enzymes of the gastrointestinal tract, increased absorption of nitrogen, vitamins and macro-and microelements; regulation of the composition and level of electrolytes, binding and excretion of toxins, harmful gases of heavy metals and radionuclides.
