The principle of distinguishing feed additives

The following points should also be mastered when selecting additives:
(1) According to the nutritional deficiencies of their commonly used feed, select the appropriate type of feed additives in order to achieve nutritional balance and maximize feed conversion.
(2) According to the instructions on the package, master the amount of use. In the case of a large proportion of green roughage and a small amount of formulated feed, use a little more amount, but do not overshoot, and some add it several times, which not only causes waste, but also inhibits growth, which is counterproductive.
(3) To be evenly matched, a step-by-step mixing method can be adopted. First, a small amount of powder and additives are mixed, then 1/3 of the feed is mixed, and finally, the whole feed can be evenly mixed.
(4) Mixed feeds should be fed wet and not cooked at high temperatures. Additives such as vitamins, amino acids, antibiotics, and enzyme preparations are easily inactivated and wasted at high temperatures.
(5) Store in a cool, dry place to prevent mildew loss. In the case of large quantities, long storage, and wet conditions, it is best to add anti-mildew preparations to stabilize feed quality.
