Animals More Likely To Be Energy Deficient"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Recently, I was looking over a presentation that someone sent me, and I saw one slide on energy values of fats and oils based on age.\u00a0 It focused on the point that younger pigs and chickens have lower metabolizable energy values for these high-energy ingredients compared to the values for older animals.\u00a0 This is one of these things that I learned long ago, but honestly haven\u2019t thought about in a while \u2013 younger animals have less developed digestive systems than older ones, and thus, are less equipped to get as much out of a diet.\u00a0 This is why more care (usually resulting in higher cost per unit) is put into diets for weanling piglets and starter broiler chicks.\u00a0 Considering the extensive thought that goes into these formulations, and since the fat\/oil component is one small piece (typically less than 5%), it\u2019s easy to forget about how this component might be affected by age of the animal.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve blogged before about the importance of dietary energy levels.\u00a0 Animals have certain metabolizable (i.e., useful for productive purposes) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insta-pro.com\/en\/2013\/06\/18\/energy-in-performance-out\/\">energy requirements<\/a> that allow them to maximize productivity.\u00a0 Ingredients supply <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insta-pro.com\/en\/2013\/09\/10\/all-energy-sources-are-not-created-equal\/\">differing amounts<\/a> of energy based on many factors.\u00a0 Fats and oils are energy-rich ingredients and are often used to satisfy the energy requirements in a formulation \u2013 a little goes a long way in terms of supplying energy.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, after I saw this slide, I looked up the articles that were referenced.\u00a0 There were some interesting studies and data behind this slide (see <a href=\"http:\/\/ps.oxfordjournals.org\/content\/70\/7\/1527.short\">here<\/a> for further reading).\u00a0 In particular, I found this data set interesting (see below):<\/p>\n<p><a

\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The different treatments in this study were designed to have different apparent metabolizable energies (AME) of the fats \u2013 basically more or less usable fats as measured by higher or lower AME values.\u00a0 Soy oil or tallow (beef fat), of either high or low quality, were used.\u00a0 I included the age of the birds that were fed, and you can clearly see that younger birds (1.5 weeks of age) did a worse job of utilizing the fat\/oil for energy compared to older birds (7.5 weeks of age).\u00a0 The difference between the best and worst, within 1.5 weeks of age, was quite substantial \u2013 30% swing between the two extremes, which when formulating a commercial diet for animals is gigantic.\u00a0 Also, the differences between high and low qualities were more pronounced with tallow than soy oil.\u00a0 Energy in absolute terms is the most expensive component of a formulation, and other key nutrients are pegged to this energy value.<\/p>\n<p>So, this is where selection of ingredients with, or solely consisting of, fats\/oils becomes critical.\u00a0 When formulating a diet for young animals, choose consistent, high-quality ingredients from a good supplier.\u00a0 Is your supplier <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insta-pro.com\/en\/2016\/02\/11\/manage-your-soy-extrusion-and-express-process-new-insta-pro-portable-ingredient-analyzer-pia-nir\/\">managing their process<\/a> as well as they should be?\u00a0 Are you using ingredients that are cheaper, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insta-pro.com\/en\/2014\/09\/25\/lessons-from-predicting-ddgs-quality-part-1-raw-observations\/\">highly variable<\/a> and with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insta-pro.com\/en\/2014\/10\/02\/lessons-from-predicting-ddgs-quality-part-2-prediction-equation\/\">low-quality fat<\/a>?\u00a0 All things worth considering to get young animals off to a good start.\u00a0 At Insta-Pro Intl, we pride ourselves on high-quality ingredients that are developed by our nutritionists through feeding trials and studies.\u00a0 Send us a message to
