EFFICIENCY OF LACTO-ACID ADDITIVE APPLYING IN FEEDING BROILERS

Abstract

The article reveals aspects of developing animal indexes and productivity of broilers when applying lacto-acid additive. The paper applies experimental data and shows efficiency of lacto-acid additive applying in ratios of broilers. The research is aimed at estimation of lacto-acid efficiency when applying it in feed ratios together with activated feeds. The research focuses on estimating different ways of lacto-acid additive applying and its influence on broilers productivity; defining the appropriate rate of additive in poultry feeding; revealing economic efficiency of lacto-acid additive applying in feeding young birds. The authors declare efficient amount of lacto-acid additive is 0.2 % of ratio mass. They note average daily liveweight gain increases on 2.5 % and overall liveweight gain on 3 %; feed consumption pro 1 kg of body weight is reduced. The article proves applying of 0.2 % lacto-acid additive together with activated feeds reduces feed consumption pro 1 kg of body weight gain; when specialists apply 0.3 % of lacto-acid additive this leads to increasing of feed consumption on 10 %. When birds receive granular lacto-acid additive, this increases average daily liveweight gain on 2.5 % and overall liveweight gain on 6.1 % and reduces feed consumption on 06.6 % and 6.6 % correspondently. The authors conclude feeding broilers with granular lacto-acid additive allows increasing production profitability.
