    Feed additives refer to various trace substances added to compound feed. These trace substances are substances that maintain the high growth rate of broilers and are easily lacking in general feed. These additives are mainly as follows.


    chicken feed


    Vitamins


    Use special vitamin additives for broilers, and the amount of addition can refer to the recommended amount in the manufacturer's instruction manual, generally 0.02%-0.05%. However, the composition of the diet, environmental conditions (temperature, feeding method, etc.), disease, transportation, transfer, vaccination, etc. must also be considered. When chickens are under these adverse conditions, the amount of vitamins added can be appropriately increased (for example, increased by about 1 times).


    Pigments


    The role of such additives is to meet the market's demand for high-quality broiler chickens with yellow skin. Adding them to the feed can deepen the skin color. Synthetic carotenoids are commonly used to supplement the deficiency of lutein in feed. The amount added is generally 2-10 grams per ton of feed. Since there are many types of coloring additives on the market, farmers should pay close attention to whether the coloring additives used are harmful to the human body.


    Amino Acids


    Amino acids added to feed are mainly essential amino acids that are most lacking in plant feed. The main additives are artificially synthesized lysine and methionine. Additive dosage is generally 0.02%-0.05%.


    Antioxidants


    Because high-quality broiler feed contains a lot of fat, the fat and fat-soluble vitamins in it will be automatically oxidized during storage, which will cause the feed to deteriorate. Therefore, when storing high-quality broiler feed for a long time, it is necessary to add antioxidants to the compound feed.


    Anti-fungal agent


    The function of antifungal agent is mainly to prevent mold and deterioration of feed in high temperature and humid seasons.
