You can easily quantify the performance impacts of a poultry disease challenge. Performance goes down, and mortality adds up, leading to higher costs and lower profitability. The numbers are clear.
The cause of the challenge is usually less clear, often because it is hidden in the microbiome of the bird. With the right tools, it is possible to accurately characterize the source of the disease challenge and identify a customized solution to support poultry health and performance.
The microbiome is a community of microbes that impact poultry health and performance. They live throughout a bird’s gastrointestinal tract, skin and respiratory tract, as well as in the poultry house environment. This complex community impacts poultry health and performance – some members benefit bird health and others cause challenges.
The Purina® Microbiome Quotient™ service gets to the bottom of a poultry disease challenge to identify a specific solution through three steps:
Optimize flock performance
Our approach to a challenge on one poultry operation could be vastly different than our approach to another. In either case, the result is a customized solution for optimal poultry performance.
