Biscuit meal for layer feed

Economical energy in layer rations in place of part of the maize; supports palatability and intake.

Biscuit Meal

Energy that lowers feed cost

Its role in this ration

Feed is the largest cost in egg production. Biscuit meal, with its high energy value and a price advantage over cereals, replaces part of the maize. Its palatability supports intake in hot periods.

About inclusion rates

The share in the ration depends on the animal group, the performance target and the other ingredients; it should be set with your feed nutritionist. The information below describes the role of the product in this group; it is not a formula.

Points of attention

  • Cost: an advantage per kg of energy compared with cereals; direct savings on ration cost.
  • The fat content is included in the total fat balance of the ration; its linoleic acid can support egg weight.
  • Low fibre and high digestibility; calcium and protein sources are planned separately.
  • Sugar improves palatability; the ration limit is set with the nutritionist according to egg quality targets.
  • Lot-specific analysis report: fat, moisture and salt values are shared with the quote.
