The Poultry Nutrition Blackbelt Podcast

Reducing the particle size of feed ingredients requires significant energy expenditure. When it comes to research on the subject, corn and wheat have been considered in most studies, but there is limited investigation on soybean meal. With that in mind, in this episode, Dr. John Boney discusses two studies he worked on about hammermill screen selection for soybean processing and its effects on soybean meal particle size, feed milling efficiency, and pullet and broiler performance.Meet the guest: Dr

To reduce the presence of pathogenic bacteria, poultry feed can be pelleted at high temperatures and extended times. However, as conditioning temperature and time increase, amino acid conformation may change, thus reducing its digestibility and consequently affecting bird performance. In this episode, Dr. Joe Moritz discusses a study he worked on to evaluate increased conditioning temperatures and exposure time during the pelleting process by using a hygienizer (hygienic pelleting). The study

Welcome to the Poultry Nutrition Black Belt Podcast. Today, we are introduced to a new host who will be accompanying us along our ongoing series, Dr. Pratima Adhikari. In this episode, we engage in a fun and insightful conversation, discussing various aspects of Dr. Adhikari's expertise and research, such as her experience in layer nutrition and her groundbreaking projects in the field.Meet the guest: Dr. Pratima AdhikariExperienceCurrent: Associate Professor at Mississippi State UniversityPast:

Animals strongly rely on their microbiome, which mainly consists of bacteria, for digestion. Therefore, it plays a significant role in the regulation of their physiology and in the behavior of their gastrointestinal tract – in other words, in their overall health. That makes it essential for us to take good care of gut microbiota if we are to maintain the well-being of our animals. In this episode, Dr. Tellez-Isaias discusses the importance of the gastrointestinal tract, going into the symbiotic

Lipids play an essential role in organ development and perinatal growth. Functional omega-3 fatty acids, such as α-linoleic acid and docosahexaenoic acid, may improve chick quality and growth performance. In this episode, Dr. Aizwarya (Ash) Thanabalan explains her research, which involved feeding broiler breeders different forms of omega-3 fatty acids and observing the effects on their performance. She also talks about how the study evaluated the way broiler response to the Coccidiosis challenge

When it comes to fibrous diets, exogenous enzymes (like xylanase) are crucial for improving nutrient utilization and enhancing broiler growth performance. Additionally, xylooligosaccharides are currently being studied as potential prebiotics that provide several beneficial effects, such as stimulating the immune system and promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria in chickens. In today's episode, I talk to Dr. Amit Singh about his work providing broilers with different levels of this enzyme
