The poultry industry is undergoing changes based on consumers demand for transparency. The most common trends, highlighted here<\/a>. One of the trends mentioned, an all vegetarian diet<\/a> claim, appeals to the consumer\u2019s preference; however, poultry are omnivorous in the wild. In other words, with a proper feeding management, poultry\u2019s nutritional needs can be met with either animal or vegetable protein sources or a combination of both. When combined with the economics of feeding millions of birds, a more flexitarian approach can be useful. So now to the question, should poultry be fed an all vegetarian diet or not?<\/p>\n

There are several benefits to using animal protein sources \u2013 as described here<\/a>. These include a complete protein and fat source, source of limiting amino acids, such as lysine and methionine, and repurposing of animal by-products. However, a by-product is a high moisture product and can be difficult to process into a useable ingredient. Typically, there is a very costly drying step involved which may damage nutrient content.<\/p>\n

In contrast, plant sourced meals can be used in poultry diets to help reduce the overall diet cost and provide a quality source of nutrients. Plant sourced protein meals are dry ingredients which help to concentrate the nutrients they supply in the diet when compared to high-moisture animal proteins. However, plant sourced proteins need to be processed to be a useable feeding ingredient. To avoid issues with ingredient quality, such as batch-to-batch variation and nutrient damage related to over- and under-processing, special attention should be payed to how these ingredients are processed. Both animal and plant sourced proteins can be improved by using an easy-to-operate and controllable process like high-shear dry extrusion. As with any means of ingredient processing, the ability to control and optimize the process is essential to creating high-quality nutritional ingredients<\/a> for animal diets.<\/p>\n

At Insta-Pro\u00ae International, the high-shear dry extrusion and mechanical oil pressing technologies have been optimized for the animal\u2019s nutritional needs throughout all stages of production. With 40+ years of animal research, extruded ingredients provide highly digestible protein and energy for many species. Speak with an Insta-Pro\u00ae representative today to learn how mechanical processing of plant sourced and animal proteins can produce high-quality feed ingredients suitable for both all vegetarian and flexitarian animal feeding programs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
