[Music] so good afternoon everyone I would say if you don't find your name on the paper board at 4 p.m. it's not because you play the test for the game it's just because these are some some issues but you will find that your name so I'm really pleased to share this session on layers and I would say on the output of layer which is a I would say and I think it's quite interesting and we are all facing the same issue in fact we we are facing the issue of increasing the demand on the consumption of animal protein and I think it's important that we all collaborate and cooperate to fulfill this demand from from the world growth population obviously it might have different depending on regions and I think Francois will address the issue but thinking about the worldwide basis it's quite interesting and we are facing various situation when you talk about animal protein production obviously the first thing is a growth and if you think not in in fig rolls or bird meat growth Center butter and the protein growth in fact it's important to realize that 1.7 percent per year increase has been I would say mentioned several times by FAO and that is ending up if you take the feed conversion to more than 3.5 to 4 percent in the feed so it's really a big demand on the animal protein prediction for the future and these are some issue obviously there is an economic pressure on that means that today there's some variation in the price of the feed stuff in the price of the outputs meats the eggs and so on there is also market concentration so you can see here several mentioned to see how we are living in a very demanding world and with a lot of economic pressure and you know that and also on the societal we could say environment pressure but also the society and I think Francois will address the evolution and particularly in Europe but which is a case worldwide on some big changes on the production in Europe we talk about the free-range animals and so no cage of free cage free layers I would say but when you talk about the antibiotic ban grouse promoter ban in the world it's spreading very quickly just here in the in the Netherlands I remember confirms years ago about the AGP ban and if you remember some years ago there was the participation from the states and they always said oh it's a it's a problem of Europe it's not a problem of the rest of the world but now it's spreading everywhere including us and the even go further with the no anti antibiotic forever so I think it's it's a it's a very big big challenge for the future when we look at the at the layers and it's important to realize that the egg is a very interesting food for the human population and just it's an old figure but I suppose that Francois will had maybe give more updated figures but he writes a worldwide figure back here 2011 on the egg consumptions and I would say it's always surprising to see the Mexican having one egg per day I would say per person roughly on the basis it's interesting to see also we'd always talked about the your whole eggs but more and more now there is a development of the egg products so the byproduct of the eggs the transformation of the eggs and that is a even greater increase in the last year's in in all countries and one of the objective I think I tried to summarize what could be the objective of the layer producers and when you travel around the world you see most of the people are trying to prolong the Lading cycle of the of the hands and for four years I remember people were stopping I would say trials around 62 or even before but now we are talking about more 70 78 and even the big question of prolonging up 200 weeks of age and try to maintain the level of production and today with the genetic potential we are able in fact to sustain quite a very high level of production for at least quite a great number of weeks so I think it's a it's important and but facing that we are also different period in the year in the legging cycle with the initial period we all want to get good on set of lay less I would say viability between the flocks more imagine you starting of the lay after we want to maintain and that the genetic potential is there so you can see today more than 92 percent 94% laying right on the optimum beginning but after at the end we are often challenged because we are trying to prolong but we don't want to increase too much your egg weight to change the the characteristics and the output after and also we are challenged by the eggshell quality and that is a bigger also a big issue and I would say today just when you make the calculation just by prolonging for 10 weeks you could get more 40 euro per ton of eggs that's quite a big value so today people are really trying to push more and I've visited Central America where they try to push up 200 weeks due to the avian flu before and so on they try to compensate by proton Zing's of flux as long as possible but that is an issue and if we try to summarize what could be the issues and we try to see tomorrow if we fulfill that I would say first is I would say improving the duration of the leading performance so as I say more homogeneous beginning and rapid onset of lay longer laying period with no compromise on the egg quality obviously a big issue for all of us is improving the feed efficiency and the productivity which means reducing the feed cost and improving also the diet formulation flexibility and I think it is a bet with address of fact that maybe we can use a lot more ingredients in the food formulation but you need for that you have methods to in fact anticipate the quality of the raw materials and also we want to improve the sustainability of the egg production and we are facing issues I would say what is not digested which is releasing the environment but also the image and the welfare of the animal particularly when we talk about cage free systems and I would say an obsession of all egg producer is having a good eggs and we are not there is a moralistic token in front by you're an old guy talking about broken eggs and I want to buy broken egg because they are cheaper zand than fresh eggs so you say I want fresh egg but you broke the eggs for me and then I would pay I will pay cheaper price and so on and it was a joke around the broken eggs and no legs but I think we are all concerned by that we want eggs optimum quality and good characteristics and so on and when you compare because very often for the non direct people involved in the egg sales and so on we we can make a lot of products we see with the eggs but there is a difference in the price of the output so when you talk about industry on egg in fact you have one price here but I quoted a few months ago now and when you look at table eggs you have a better price so obviously there is always better value to have table eggs than I would say what we call the industrial eggs so keeping that in mind obviously reinforce a need to have a good Excel quality a good characteristic and stability of the eggs to be sure that you get most value of the laying flocks and if you we look at the eggs obviously we have fewer elements we are interested in first is a size of the eggs and it's a nutritional issue the eggshell quality and that is important to be able to support the best quality of the eggs we want also to guarantee the egg freshness particularly when we consider the breeders where we want to transport the eggs or conserve the egg for some way before starting the incubation today more and more and tomorrow we will talk about some nutritional value of the eggs and how to be able to enrich the eggs in some very interesting nutrients for the future and also very often we forget that from the nutritional from the management you can change also the technological properties of the eggs and recently we we run tries we're looking at the capacity of the white the albumin part you know to be to make foams and to have a firm foam and in fact we were able to show that the nutrition experience of the layers before might influence this capacity of the white properties so I think it's important we can help the produce the users I would say of the end product eggs with the nutrition properties and nutrition strategies so obviously when we talk about that we talked about feeder so feed still plays a very important role on the food nutrition and on the egg industry and I would say it's roughly common in any type of production we could say that feed represent roughly 70 to 75 percent of the cost and that is still a big issue like in other production so that's why it's still interesting even if it's to daisy-chain increment isn't a few percentage and so on you can save a lot of money on the egg production so when we talk about the feeder we talk very often about the digestible part so roughly the digestible part represent 80% of the total feed so that means that 20% of the feed is not fully digested and it will be addressed by your Bello later on to say how what is this 20% in the composition how can we improve the digestibility and how we can go further on that and to go further on that it makes value so obviously today if you consider that you can get 1/3 of this 20% that means roughly 7% that as a significant value in feed cost reduction and for that and thanks to us a new development of our rava you advance we are addressing this 7% increase with what we call the Fidesz rabbi o advance and it's just to challenge the discussion because I would say we will try to illustrate during the presentation today and tomorrow what could be the benefits and I say today and Ln as promoted the effect not only on the digestible fraction but also beyond digestibility when you change a substrate arriving at the iron gates you change also the potential of the nutrients to to stimulate microbiota and to change the response of the anymore and then you increase much more the value than on these digestibility so I would say today we have already robbed by your advance it has been launched successfully but today now it's it's good for four layers and that's the objective of the of the seminars and now available in in layers so it's just to simplify and just to set up the frame it's a unique mode of action because today and value and Elizabeth we try to illustrate better what was the change done on the micro organism to get the secretion of zionists and Hibino farah naaz a days to get a significant improvement in energy available amino acids and available phosphorus and that is thanks to the debranching enzyme that will be illustrated later on and that has been I would say published we have publish also the overall enhancement of the digestibility but as I said before beyond digestibility you have also the improvement functioning and girls so you will see the numbers and more illustration on the different trials supporting that and obviously we started with broilers we are also the turkeys and now we will present more results on on layers and to support that in fact we we communicate and we try to illustrate in different condition what could be the consequence and we go I would say in in progress up to the carcass quality and in layers up to the saucier so another publication with we did in Brazil when we use on corn soy based diets so the less challenging diets but we realized today with the right enzyme potential enzyme profile in fact you get a strong efficacy on the low viscous diet like so corn based diets and today when we talk about the fides it means today we are thinking more about the global and digestible fractions and to see how to address a fraction obviously when you formulate some time you want to put the value on one enzyme another enzyme and so on we consider today the best way to make maximum value output of the enzyme is to consider the global and digest refraction and the global enzyme solutions and at the end it's still the same you have a cost of the enzyme supplementation and what you want is to the return on investment or overseas cost of supplementation but it's better to consider the global action because today you will see that the indigestible components are interacting each other and the enzyme are also interacting each other so it's better to have the global approach to get the full benefits of the of the enzyme so we run early on this year a webinar on the global feed digestibility to really address the different issues and you Derek was there at the time with my kid and Jonah bleah and we tried to illustrate all the questions that can rape be raised on that problem issue of global food digestibility and this is on the fictional platform and today and tomorrow the presentation will be also posted on the fictional platform so you will be able to watch again the presentation by the different speakers you know because very often when you get the PowerPoint presentation or PDF presentation you don't remember how the people who are going from one slide to zero for the different element so I think it's better to watch again and then you learn much more and also we have the pleasure to say that in the next PSA meeting in July in in San Antonio in Texas we will of during the PSA conference Fedeli session again addressing the question on the global food digestibility in the interaction between the different substrate and how we can improve that that will be in July the date of the session is not yet defined because it's on the official program so it will be a shortly announced so what about three days in layers and I think today I'm pleased to introduce a different speaker so first we will have review of what's happening on the egg market in Europe with wackadoodle from eat avi after we will address a question of fibers and I think it's interesting because in layers we are talking about more rich diets in more fiber-rich diets than in embroider so I think it's important and Bello and Elizabeth and we put two names here but they will do a joint presentation over the time just to address with rank what are the limiting factors how we can improve and how we can illustrate that and with Robin advance and how we can help the feed formulation with the technology recent technology like peony and so on and tomorrow we will look more at to other aspects one aspects is obviously you're taking care of the welfare of the animals and that is a big issue regarding the DB King or the different strategy on that and also on the oxidative stress when we say oxidative stress if I ask the question in the room maybe you would say we don't have oxidative stress in fine you have just to imagine the level of production of the animal today and just for instance in a blaze or like in the broilers the quantity of food and the transformation the efficiency on drove of transformations make a big challenge on the Arabic metabolism of the animal and then that means that there is a lot of oxygen consumption and obviously a lot of generation of free radicals and so on and that is a big big issue for the fuzzy animal and we'll close the session tomorrow tomorrow night [Music]
