Broiler Research Facility

Controlled Environment

Two broiler sheds with 88 pens each, housing up to 1,300 birds per hall. Flexible trial durations from 1 to 6+ weeks ensure adaptability.

Feed Mill Capabilities

Our advanced feed mill significantly enhances our research capabilities by enabling precise and efficient feed formulation. Key features include:

• High-Precision Mixing: Achieving highly accurate mixing with a coefficient of variation (CV) ≤ 3%, even for additives at very low inclusion rates (≤ 50 g/ton).
• Cold Pelleting: Ensuring low thermal tolerance levels for products in the development phase, safeguarding the integrity of heat-sensitive additives.
• Comprehensive Analysis: Capable of performing proximate analysis and detailed assessments, including test product recovery in feed, to validate product performance.

Sampling and Analysis

• Optimized Sampling Procedures: Our in-house laboratory employs advanced protocols to minimize variation and ensure rapid preservation and fixation of samples, maintaining their integrity.
• Secure Long-Term Storage: Samples are securely stored under optimal conditions for up to two years, enabling reliable, long-term analysis and traceability.

Our cutting-edge facilities and expertise provide reliable insights to drive innovation in poultry nutrition and gut health.
