INFLUENCE OF THE PRODUCT BASED ON ORGANIC ACIDS ON THE PRODUCTIVITY OF CHICKEN-BROILERS
One of the most important issues of modern poultry farming is search and approbation of new cheap and ecologically safe food additives which stimulate (induce) chicken productivity, are good for their health and thus increase their livestock. Such substances contain organic acids. Nowadays acidifiers containing various acids, their salts and their combinations are used. The most common acids in our country are the following: formic acid, propionic acid, acetic acid, benzoic acid, sorbic acid, fumaric acid, succinic acid, lemon acid, wine acid and their salts. An important task is screening new, cheap and ecologically safe biologically-active additives which increase productivity of poultry. That is why the study of acidifier “Acidomix AFG” and its effect has a great theoretical and practical value. The use of this substance helps to provide safety and productivity of farm poultry and improves conversion of feed. Organic acids and their salts which are contained in “Acidomix AFG” suppress growth and development of pathogenic bacteria and fungi in feed and feed raw materials.
