Feed Additives
for Farm Animals
Feed additives play a key role in modern animal production by supporting performance, health and efficiency.
They are used to complement standard feeding programs and optimise nutrient utilisation, helping animals reach their full potential under practical farm conditions.
Depending on their function, feed additives can enhance feed intake, support digestion, strengthen natural resilience and improve overall productivity.
The right combination of additives contributes to better feed conversion, consistent growth and improved farm results.
Challenges in
Animal Nutrition.
Despite the benefits of higher-quality feed, most of a farm animal’s diet still comprises maize, wheat, and soybean meal due to the higher costs of quality feed. Ensuring proper nutrition becomes a challenge for farmers, impacting animal health and productivity.
Sensory Additives
Sensory additives are designed to enhance feed palatability, stimulating appetite and increasing voluntary feed intake. Typical examples include flavouring compounds and sweeteners.
Nutritional Additives
Nutritional additives supply essential nutrients that support optimal growth, health and performance. This category includes vitamins, amino acids and other key dietary components.
Zootechnical Additives
Zootechnical additives help improve how animals utilise the nutrients in their feed. They do not provide nutrients themselves, but enhance the efficiency of the diet. This category includes enzymes and certain phytogenic additives.
