Rising feed prices are likely to put poultry companies

under increasing pressure. The main reason the

escalation in cereal and oilseed costs. In most regions,

producers are unable to pass on their higher costs to

consumers.

Average prices of poultry feed consisting of oilseed

cakes, rice bran, grounded maize and soya-rose by 69

percent year-on-year , due to lack of rainfall and higher global prices.

Feed is a key input in poultry farming and this sharp price increase

suggests that cost of eggs and chicken (protein food items) may rise sharply

in coming months, research firm Nomura said in its report here.

If farmers choose to substitute poultry feed with cereals then prices for

cereals could rise as well.

Rising feed prices are an early indicator of the potential impact that the

deficient monsoons could have on food prices. The industry suffered a loss

which is perhaps the worst and it takes lot of time to heal. The poultry

industry is already facing a major slump. Irrespective of the position and

status, thousands of farmers accumulated huge losses already. The reason

being the rising rates of feed particularly soybean and maize, along with

production costs in the last three months. Industry experts are forecasting

negative growth for the poultry industry in the coming months. Dry

weather has also played the role of big villain, sending the industry to

welter in the heat.

The production cost for broiler chicken has gone up multi fold. But the

market rate has decreased drastically. The whole industry as well as the

consumer is well aware of the rupee factor. "Skinless chicken, the dressed

chicken rates have gone up. The production cost also rose to sky high. The

situation few months back was encouraging and economically viable for

the breeders but the heat situations has taken out the life from the industry.

Industry sources say as a result of increase in production costs, poultry

breeders and hatcheries across the country are in severe stress and panic.

Andhra Pradesh produces about three crore broiler chicken every month.

But, with the industry facing a rough patch, the production could decline.

It is indeed a happy situation and let us hope that the situation thus prevail

for some weeks to come and give the entire poultry industry a happy time

and bring back smiles on the faces.

Abstract: The aim of this study summarizes

the experimental knowledge on efficacy,

possible modes of activity and aspects of

application of phytogenic products as feed

additives for poultry. Feed additives are a

group of feed ingredients that can cause a

desired animal response in a non-nutrient

role such as pH shift, growth or metabolic

modifier. Many substances found in nature

have a wide range of growth promoting,

immunost imulatory or ant imicrobia l

activity. Common feed additives used in

poultry diets include antimicrobials,

antioxidants, pH control agents and

enzymes. Phytogenic are a relatively young

class of feed additives and in recent years

this feed additives have gained considerable

attention in the feed industry. They are a

wide variety of herbs, spices and products

derived thereof and are mainly essential

oils. Although, numerous reports have

d e m o n s t r a t e d a n t i o x i d a t i v e a n d

antimicrobial and immune stimulation

efficacy in vitro, respective experimental in

vivo evidence is still quite limited. A limited

number of experimental comparisons of

phytogenic feed additives with antibiotics

and acidifiers have suggested similar effects

on the gut. Gut microflora has significant

effects on host nutrition, health and growth

performance by interacting with nutrient

utilization and the development of gut

system of the host. In addition, some

phytogenic compounds seem to promote

intestinal mucus production. However, a

systematic approach toward the efficacy and

safety of phytogenic compounds used as

feed additives for poultry is still lacking.

INTRODUCTION

Feed additives are products used in animal

nutrition for purposes of improving the

quality of feed and the quality of food from

animal origin or to improve the animals

performance and health. The initial use of

antibiotics in diets arose from the discovery

in the late 1940's, in the United States that

including the fermentation products of

Streptomyces aureofaciens (a strain of

bacteria) in the diets of simple-stomached

animals such as pigs and poultry resulted in

growth responses (Frost, 1991). It is

important to make a distinction between

antibiotics used in the treatment and

prevention of disease in farm animals

(prescribed therapeutic and prophylactic

use) which differs from their use as feed

additives to enhance growth (Castanon,

2007). As feed additives, antibiotics are used

Sangrovit WS holds promise for Immuno-suppressed chicken flocks

at low concentrations of 2.5-50 ppm

(depending on the compound used). In the

next 50 years, the use of antibiotics as feed

additives in pig and poultry production

became virtually universal. However, the

p o s s i b i l i t y o f d e v e l o p i n g r e s i s t a n t

populations of bacteria and the side effects

of using antibiotics as growth promoters in

farm animals have been led to the European

Union and United States ban on the use of

antibiotics on farm animals as growth and

health promoters.This will have avoidable

consequences for growth performance of

birds in the poultry industry. Hence, an

intensive search for alternatives such as

probiotics, prebiotics, symbiotics, enzymes,

toxin binders, organic acids, organic

minerals, oligosaccharides and other feed

additives has started in the last decade

(Fulton et al., 2002). Phytogenics are a group

of natural growth promoters or non-

antibiotic growth promoters, derived from

herbs, spices or other plants. In this context,

the present research provides an overview

of recent knowledge on the use of

phytogenic feed additives in poultry diets

and possible modes of action and safety

implications.

Use of Sangrovi t WS in Immuno-

suppression

Recently, a field trial was conducted by Dr.

D.Kannan, Asst. Professor, Dept. of Poultry

Sciences, VCRI, Namakkal, at a commercial

layer farm. The farm affected with high

immuno-suppression due to prior Marek's

Disease outbreaks suffered heavy economic

losses owing to poor production and

significant mortalties.

Trial design:

Two flocks in different sheds housed

approximately 25,400 birds each. As a part

of the trial, layers in one of the sheds were

fed Sangrovit WS through water medication

@ 100 grams per 1000 liters in continuous

water for a period of 5 days. Tables 1 a & b

show the flock performance in both

Sangrovit treated (ST) and untreated control

(UTC) flocks over a period of 15 days, that

comprise of 10 days of data recording before

Sangrovit treatment actually started in the

ST flocks and later 5 days of data recording

during the course of the treatment in both ST

and UTC flocks.

Results and Discussions:

Feed Intake: Feed intake reduced by 8.5% in control group and 9.7% in Sangrovit group respectively.

Egg Production: The number of egg trays in the ST group increased by 1.4%. On the contrary, the egg trays in UTC reduced by 0.5%. The total number of egg trays in control was 675 which reduced to 672 after 5 days, whereas in the ST group the number of trays went up from 679 to 689 during the 5 days course of treatment with Sangrovit WS.

Mortalities: The mortalities in the ST group were 31% lower as compared to the UTC group.

Conclusion

There are so many advantages of using herbs than antibiotics. Phytogenic feed additives may have the potential to promote production performance and productivity and thus add to the set of nonantibiotic growth promoters such as organic acids and probiotics. Even antibiotics can't be used during laying period of chickens due to residual effect in eggs. Sangrovit WS is a research product from Phytobiotics GmbH, a natural feed additive company from Germany. Farmers can easily use Sangrovit WS in their layer, broiler and parent stock without any residual effect. Even Sangrovit can be used during the laying period.

Food borne diseases are the important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Due to poor hygienic conditions in developing world, Salmonellae, the gram negative bacteria, have been causing heavy morbidity, mortality and economic losses in poultry farming. More than 2400 serotypes of Salmonellae have been found all over the world.

Zoonotic importance of Salmonellosis:

Salmonellos is a zoonotic disease of great economic and public health concern affecting humans, animals and birds. Poor hygienic conditions favour the spread of salmonellosis in developing world. In humans, salmonella is a major cause of food-borne diseases worldwide resulting in gastroenteritis, enterocolitis (salmonellosis), enteric fever (typhoid fever) and septicemia.

S a l m o n e l l a p r i m a r i l y i n h a b i t s t h e gastrointestinal tract. The organism almost always enters via oral route through contaminated food or water.

Many times, salmonella has been found in raw meat which is mainly due to unhygienic conditions of handling, processing and improper method of storage. It may also be due to possible cross contamination during slaughtering, cutting and poor hygienic conditions at retail level. At retail level, many times we find chicken meat, goat meat and fish food together, which facilitates cross contamination.

Treatment:

1. Furazolidone (Profidone-200) in feed helps to prevent salmonellae

2. Use of antibiotics like Flumequin (Zydaquin), Enrofloxacin (Enrodac-10), Colistin etc.

3 Spraying eggs with neomycin sulphate solution before incubation

4. Disinfecting eggs by dipping in Glufort solution

Control:

1. At hatchery: Regular testing of various equipments and taking immediate measures

2. Create breeding flocks free of salmonella. Prevent vertical transmission. Maintain complete hygiene.

3. Control the disease by removal of carriers through repeated blood test

4. Replacement birds should be purchased only from salmonella -free hatcheries

5. Eggs should be collected as frequently as possible (At least 3 times a day)

6. Soiled eggs should be washed in bactericidal solution

7. All eggs used for hatching should be disinfected on the farm as soon as possible

8. Eggs can be disinfected by dipping in Glufort solution

Salmonellosis: Zoonotic Importance, Treatment & ControlDr AK Jain, Head Training & Development, Zydus Animal Health Limited, Ahmedabad ([email protected])

9. Biosecurity: Restricted entry of visitors. Strict biosecurity measures have to be taken to clean and disinfect litter, vehicles, equipments & utensils, egg trays, trolleys.

10. Prefer all-in, all-out system at commercial farm level

11. Terminal disinfection of the farm: Use strong disinfectant like Glufort

12. Some vaccines are also available

12. Total pest and rodent control

13. Proper hygiene at meat retail and other levels

US - Novus International, Inc. recently announced the launch of SPORULIN® Direct-Fed Microbial (DFM) for the poultry industry. This new DFM was developed at the University of Arkansas after five years of research and is currently manufactured by Pacific Vet Group-USA. Novus has the exclusive distribution rights in most markets around the world.

Novus is proud to add SPORULIN direct-fed microbial to its industry-leading poultry gut health portfolio.

The research behind the development of SPORULIN involved screening literally millions of potential isolates against rigorous selection criteria, followed by extensive laboratory and field testing.

The result was a unique, proprietary blend of three specifically selected strains of Bacillus subtilis that

Novus Announces Launch of Probioticwork well in combination and, more importantly, perform well in the animal. SPORULIN delivers the optimal blend of a perfected combination of spores to just the right location in the gut, leading to optimised feed conversion, maximized health and improved food safety.

Many probiotic formulations used in commercial poultry production are pre-defined cultures that were originally developed for some other purpose. SPORULIN, however, is a custom-designed, purpose-built probiotic for modern poultry production.

SPORULIN is very tolerant to the heat and pressure of feed manufacturing and has a high post-pelleting potency and stability profile. The spores are robust and can survive harsh conditions during feed pelleting and storage, and they can sporulate and

grow to large numbers quickly in the gastrointestinal track of the animal. The product has a positive effect on Clostridium spp. and Salmonella spp.

In field tests among broilers and turkeys, SPORULIN has been shown to help maximize weight gain, optimize feed conversion, have a positive effect on Clostridium perfringens in commercial poultry and decrease the incidence of food safety associated pathogens.

“We're excited about offering poultry producers a truly innovative probiotic that will help improve the performance of their birds," said Ted Toburen, Senior Director Therapeutic Nutrition Solutions, at Novus. "SPORULIN will also deliver a more reliable effect on Salmonella and Clostridium perfringens, with more consistent results when compared to other probiotics currently on the market.”

NGO Urges Indian Government to Aid Poultry FarmersINDIA - A Non-Government Organisation (NGO) has urged the government to provide greater financing, research and extension services to small and medium poultry farmers.

The NGO also urged the government to implement stronger environmental and animal welfare regulations which would discourage further industrialisation of the farm animal sector, reports the India Gazette.

"The government must also invest more in the rural supply chain allowing poor farmers practising more humane and sustainable free-range egg and chicken production to capture a greater share of the market for eggs and meat," said the NGO Humane Society, in its letter to Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar.

According to the NGO, in India, over the past 50 years, egg and chicken

meat production has been radically transformed from a largely backyard activity to a massive agro-industry. But around 140 to 200 million egg-laying hens suffer extreme confinement in wire battery cages.

Private equity firms eye Australian poultry company InghamsTwo private equity firms, US-based Blackstone and Hong-Kong based Affinity Equity Partners are likely to make a bid for Australia's leading poultry processor Inghams Enterprises.

The indicative bids for the business are expected to be launched next week, and the sale is expected to fetch about A$1.4bn ($1.42bn) , which is about six or seven times Ingham's fiscal 2013 earnings.

Global buyout companies and international trade buyers are also showing interest over the acquisition of Inghams, reported the Sydney Morning Herald, citing sources with knowledge of the matter.The sale is likely to be finalised before the end of 2012.

In July 2012, Ingham's only shareholder, Bob Ingham, put the business up for sale and appointed Investec Bank to handle the divestment.It was reported that the everyday operations of Inghams will continue as usual under the direction of CEO Kevin McBain and his team until a deal is finalised.

The sale process will be closely evaluated by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC), as both Inghams and rival poultry firm Baiada, whose main customers include Coles and Woolworths respectively, control 75% of the 834,000t/yr chicken meat market in Australia.

Australian food companies have been attracting interest from private equity firms and other Asian buyers over the past two years, due to strong sales despite a slowdown in the economy.

Cherkizovo chooses Smart incubation from Pas Reform for Russia's largest hatcheryRussia's Cherkizovo Group will place Pas Reform's Smart single-stage incubation and hatchery technologies at the heart of Russia's largest and most progressive new poultry complex.

The installation, due towards the end of next year, will include 108 SmartSetPro™ setters, each with capacity for 115,200 eggs, 20 smaller 57,600 capacity SmartSetPro™ setters and 152 S m a r t H a t c h P r o ™ h a t c h e r s . T h e comprehensive installation also includes a complete line of hatchery automation systems, with automated egg receiving, egg transfer and chick handling and a hatchery climate control system that incorporates energy-saving heat recovery systems.

Each setter will be equipped with Pas Reform's Adaptive Metabolic Feedback (AMF™) the company's latest innovation to ensure that specific conditions are maintained throughout the metabolic development of each embryo. AMF™ maximizes uniformity by optimizing airflow, the evaporation of moisture and air redistribution.

With annual production set at 240mn eggs per annum, high levels of automation have been

commissioned, to reduce labour costs and save time, while delivering accuracy and efficiency in production and promoting high quality in the day old chicks.

The integrated project, being hailed as a 'live-work-play agro-industrial campus', will also include broiler and parent stock farms, slaughter plant, waste and recycling plant, feed mill and other facilities. It is anticipated that around 5,000 people will live and work on the 'campus' when it becomes fully operational, in 2015.

Dmitriy Aveltsov, Cherkizovo's First deputy CEO of the poultry division, says that sound experience with Pas Reform as a company and the reliability and performance of its S m a r t P r o ™ s i n g l e s t a g e i n c u b a t i o n technologies, were the determining factors in choosing the project's hatchery equipment supplier.

“In a project of such a large scale, Cherkizovo was looking for a partner who would not only deliver full technical and technological support up to and during installation,” he says, “but who would continue to provide ongoing support, to finetune implementation, processes and routines, as well as the assurance of (round-

the-clock) access to service, technical back up and parts availability.

Sergey Mikhailov, CEO of Cherkizovo Group comments: “This project marks a new stage of development not only for our company, but also for the poultry production sector in Russia generally, as Cherkizovo Group introduces progressive standards of effective, competitive production.”

Cherkizovo's new poultry production and processing cluster will include five broiler sites with a combined capacity of 10 million birds, four parent stock and reproduction sites for 900,000 birds and a slaughtering complex with a 24,000/hour capacity.

At full capacity, the new Cherkizovo complex will produce more than 125,000 tonnes of poultry and meat products per annum.

“We are very proud to have been selected for this important new development”, says Bart Aangenendt, chief executive of Pas Reform, “This is even more rewarding after Cherkizovo Group's r igorous evaluat ion process highlighted the reliability and safety of Smart incubators, hatchery automation and climate control systems.”

ANALYSIS - This year's World Food Day took place this week, highlighting again concerns about how to feed a growing global population affordably and sustainably. Tough economic times also mean cuts in government services and in the UK, a meeting has warned of food safety issues ahead if inspections of imported foods are not at least maintained. In the US, there are renewed efforts to push for legislation to monitor antibiotic use on farms and in feed mills, aimed to address the issue of antibiotic resistance.

This year's World Food Day, on 16 O c t o b e r , coincided with i n t e r n a t i o n a l concerns about food prices.

First held in 1979 t o r a i s e a w a r e n e s s o f food security and a g r i c u l t u r a l i s sues , Wor ld F o o d D a y i s celebrated during the annual Committee on World Food Security, which met this week in Rome to discuss solutions to skyrocketing food prices.

Across the world, it is estimated that 870 million people go to bed hungry and with food prices expected to continue upwards, this number is likely to get worse.

Extreme weather conditions have pushed global food prices close to their highest ever levels, sparking debate on the 'food versus fuel' issue. The European Commission was set to propose a five per cent cap on food-based biofuels this week.

Concern is mounting that cuts in government funding could reduce the intensity offood inspections at UK borders, leading to more foods entering the country containing banned residues.

Speaking at an open meeting of the UK Veterinary Residues Committee, agriculture representative, Tim Brigstocke, said that with the UK being only 63 per cent self-sufficient in food, the country relies heavily on imports.

Weekly Overview: Food Security Hits the Headlines

These imports have to be sampled and checked

to ensure they do not contain any harmful

residues from veterinary medicines or

antibiotics, he said, adding that the non-

statutory programme for sampling and testing

that takes place at UK ports had never been so

important.

In the US, a Representative from California has

added his voice to the push for a new bill to

monitor antibiotic use on farms.

Energy and Commerce Committee Ranking

Member, Henry A.

W a x m a n h a s

announced plans to

introduce legislation

t o i n c r e a s e

information on the

amount and use of

a n t i b i o t i c s i n

animals raised for

h u m a n

consumption. The

bill, the 'Delivering

A n t i b i o t i c

Transparency in

Animals (DATA)

Act', will provide critical information to the

FDA about the amounts and types of antibiotics

being fed to livestock.

The bill will require drug manufacturers to

provide comprehensive information to FDA on

how their drugs are used on farms. The

legislation will also require reporting by feed

mills for the first time.

In the UK, the British Veterinary Association

(BVA) has welcomed the decision to prohibit the

advertising of antimicrobials directly to animal

keepers from 2013 in a bid to reduce

antimicrobial resistance.

And finally, turning to bird flu news, one

outbreak of H5N1 highly pathogenic avian

influenza has been reported to the OIE from

Nepal. The outbreak occurred at the end of

August and the situation is now described as

'resolved'. The number of human cases reported

by the World Health Organization has remained

unchanged for the last two months at 30 cases

worldwide this year, of whom, 19 have died.

SOUTH KOREA - Prices of imported farm goods in South Korea declined 7.5 per cent last month despite concerns that extreme weather conditions would bring about price hikes, customs office data showed. Chicken prices showed an upward trend, however.

The import price index for agricultural, livestock and fishery products reached 112.5 in September, down 7.5 per cent from a year earlier, according to the Korea Customs Service (KCS). From a month before, the index retreated 1.4 per cent, reportsYonhap News Agency.

The decline came as concerns remained over farm goods price hike caused by extreme weather conditions such as drought and flooding that swept over major farmlands

around the global during the summer season.

Prices for imported agricultural products tumbled 8.6 per cent in September from a year before. Prices for major seasoning vegetable showed a stable downward trend, but those for ginger, garlic and dried pepper rose sharply. Major grain prices trended down, but corn and kidney bean prices continued to rise last month.

Imported livestock product prices fell 3.8 per cent on-year in September. Chicken prices showed an upward trend but beef and pork prices slid last month.

Prices for fishery products tumbled 10.8 per cent on-year in September. Prices of major products such as sea bass, snow crab and frozen scallop kept its downward trend last month, but loach and frozen mackerel prices rose on an on-year basis.

It is almost impossible to overemphasize the importance of water to poultry flocks. A chicken is 70 percent water; a loss of only 10 percent of that water will

result in the bird's death. And, a single day without water will cause a layer to stop laying. Water is a major component of blood and plays a major role in transporting to the cells and carrying waste away. It fills almost all space in the cells and between them. It lubricates the joints. Water also is a primary element in two of the most

important processes that occur in chickens digestion and respiration, w h i c h i s k e y t o thermoregulation. This issue was discussed during US P O U L T R Y ' s P o u l t r y Production and Health Seminar in Nashvi l l e , Tennessee (TN).

“Providing adequate, good quality water supply to growing flocks is critical to good performance. Water makes up 70 per cent of a

chicken's body weight and 85 per cent of chicks, therefore it is essential to maintain the bird's water weight,” remarked Gary Hogue, Regional Technical Manager for Aviagen, during seminar.

Mr Hogue discussed essential factors that can come between a healthy flock and output, such as water drinker line height, number of birds per drinker, and clogged water filters. He stated: “Chicks go through large amounts of growth, and chickens consume approximately twice as much water as feed. Therefore breeders have to control the water intake and supply, since it does influence performance.”

Dr Sarge Bilgili, professor at Auburn University, provided information on strategic Salmonella control interventions to help reduce Salmonella outbreak on the farm. Bilgili discussed several factors that can increase a Salmonella outbreak on the farm including infected breed stock and cross contamination. He stressed the importance of protecting chicks and decreasing risk, while emphasising actions that processors should take, such as facility cleaning, vector control, and antibiotic immunisation. Bilgili commented, “The key here is to focus earlier on young chicks. They are very susceptible to colonisation, and unfortunately all it takes is a single Salmonella cell…one single cell.”

Dr Jeff Buhr, Research Physiologist at USDA - ARS, provided additional aspects of Salmonella control interventions and the positive outcome effects of litter sampling utilising several methods, including Intermittently Stepped on Drag Swabs (ISODS). His presentation also reviewed scientific results of eggshell and hen Salmonella testing.

GERMANY & THE NETHERLANDS - Growing interest in free-range chicken in Germany and the Netherlands has led to the introduction of the CobbSasso breed into these markets.

The demand for s lower growing chickens reared more extensively represents a niche market that is becoming more significant in both countries where animal welfare is influencing consumer choice.

The introduction of the CobbSasso 175 follows the move into Hungary two years ago where the product is aimed a t t h e ' c e r t i f i e d ' a n d 'intermediate' sectors of the market.

Last year one of Germany's leading producers, Wiesenhof-Privathof, launched a new brand based on the breed for chickens reared on free range, organic and other higher welfare systems.

The CobbSasso 175 is a coloured chicken bred from a rustic brown female and a white male, with around ten per cent of the broilers having brown feathers and providing distinctive colour markings.

It is a slower growing breed that offers producers a wider choice for supplying the market with chickens reared to higher welfare standards using either indoor and free range systems.

UK - In just five years Craig Grant has established a profitable poultry business on the 290 hectare (ha) arable and pig farm run by his father and uncle near Fraserburg in Aberdeenshire, UK.

Example of a NATURANova Twin aviary, a member of the large NATURA family. The latter consists of several branches covering around twenty types of aviaries.

Mr Grant runs the family's two 12,000-bird houses on a self-employed basis and also operates his own 16,000 Big Dutchman multi-tier unit NaturaNova Twin aviary.

With great success, according to Farmers Weekly: the magazine which is aimed at the British farming industry has awarded Craig with the 2012 Young Farmer of the Year Award.

In a stiff competition, several winning ways made him stand out from the competition, not least the impressive growth Craig had achieved in business in a short period of time.
