      Learn how to enhance the manufacture of pelleted feed for broilers

      Poultry

      ICC Brazil Consulting shares information that drives the pellet’s benefits to the animal’s technical performance. Check it out!

      Did you know that the benefits of the pellet for the technical performance of broiler chicken are proven worldwide by numerous studies? This is because pelletization contributes to greater FC (Food Conversion), better digestibility of nutrients, better health and energy savings for the animal by reducing the number of times it needs to move to consume the food.

      This is one of the several pieces of information that ICC Brazil’s Consulting for Feed Mills has shared with the poultry businesses that come from the team’s experience. And today we bring some of the solutions from ICC Brazil to enhance the manufacture of pelleted feed with a focus on the broiler diet.

      First, it is important to define what is the process of transforming crumbed ingredients into pellets. According to the Feed Mills Consultant at ICC Brazil, Françuele Alexandre de Medeiros, the pelletizing process occurs from physical-chemical changes, which involve heat treatment, generated by the addition of saturated steam, under constant working pressure with exposure to temperature and humidity for a specified conditioning, pressing and cooling time.

      Then, it is important to consider that the variety of raw materials and their different nutritional and physical characteristics become a challenge in the composition of the feed formulation for broilers. Therefore, the factor with the greatest impact on the pelletizing process for the formation of good pellets is the formulation and its composition needed to meet the nutritional levels of each species.

      Thus, in order to achieve high benefits to the technical performance of broilers with pelleted feed, businesses need to study further the characteristics of the formulation and, consequently, be able to operationalize the process.

      It is worth remembering that diets for broilers have high levels of cereals (>60%), combined with high levels of total ether extract (>6%) and low fiber content (<2%). Such an association will result, as a rule, in low quality of pellet (60 to 70%), however, high efficiency in pressing. Nevertheless, studies also show that different factors and variables have a significant impact on the process and quality of the pellet. Therefore, it is necessary to complement the available information and understand the intensity of this interference.
