Enzymes can benefit diets, reduce nutrient costs

Dr. Yingjun Ru at the VIV Asia Eggs Conference presented the benefits of supplementing hen diets with enzymes.
His paper represented a meta-analysis of a series of studies conducted in the Philippines, Australia and Thailand. Consistent with published studies, Dr. Ru demonstrated that Avizyme 1500 expressing xylanase, amylase, protease and phytase activity can potentially reduce the cost of dietary formulation in corn-soy based feeds with and without high-fiber ingredients.
Nutrient specifications for energy and critical amino acids were reduced by 5% without adversely affecting performance of laying flocks.
