Water quality: essential for feed intake and performance, WPC 2022 Opening...

Fri, 12 Aug 2022 10:13:45 GMT

Speaker: Prof Dr Andrew OLKOWSKI, University of Saskatchewan, Canada

High levels of metals or minerals in the drinking water compromise the water intake and thus the performance
Broilers exposed to drinking water containing minerals are at higher risk of developing enteritis, including necrotic enteritis

Roundtable on Elemental Selenium, WPC 2022

Tue, 09 Aug 2022 07:40:43 GMT

Speakers: Véronique VACCHINA, Prof Peter SURAI, Mickael BRIENS and Pierre-André GERAERT

Refining the optimum selenium source to be used to help our animals optimize their performance is crucial. The recent analytical progresses show the importance of the correct analysis of the composition of the selenium sources used in animal feeds: from total Se to elemental Se and Se-Met. Dr Véronique Vacchina, UT2A, will explain these recent progresses.

Roundtable on Oxidative Metabolism, WPC 2022

Tue, 09 Aug 2022 07:39:24 GMT

Speakers: Prof Peter SURAI, Mickael BRIENS and Pierre-André GERAERT

Our highly performing broilers are like athletes. To transform the huge amount of feed eaten everyday their mitochondria need to function tremendously producing ATP and heat but also lots of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) detrimental to the optimal functioning of the animals.
We thus need to help them to deal to buffer the ROS potential, supplying them with efficient antioxidant solutions such as organic Selenium, key in the selenoproteins.

Roundtable on Liquid in Feed Mills, WPC 2022

Tue, 09 Aug 2022 07:28:33 GMT

Speakers: Joan BRUSSOSA, Tom HUGHES, Marc PEREL and Pierre-André GERAERT

A feedmill traditionally deals with grains, flours, meals... and operations such as grinding, mixing, pelleting...

But more and more liquids are used during the feed processing either as ingredients or additives.

Sharing the experience of incorporating liquids either before of after pelleting and optimize their use is the objective of this roundtable with the feedback of an end-user, an equipment designer and a feed additive supplierA feedmill traditionally deals with grains, flours, meals... and operations such as grinding, mixing, pelleting...

Roundtable on Feedase concept, WPC 2022

Mon, 08 Aug 2022 17:40:02 GMT

Speakers: Rick KLEYN, Marcio CECCANTINI and Pierre-André GERAERT

Enzymes are specific to substrates, present in the different raw materials of the feed. All components of the feed are interacting and when developing the value of an enzyme it's important to consider the total level of antinututritional substrates within the feed as well as their interaction. The supplementary enzymes are complementary and work as a whole on the feed, that is the Feedase concept.

Considering such an approach will help to optimize the benefits of enzymes in feed formulation.
