Urea is used to replenish the deficiency of available protein in the diet. It is an industrial chemical product of the interaction of ammonia and carbon dioxide.Feed urea is used to replenish the nitrogen deficiency in diets of ruminants. The use of feed additives replenishes crude protein deficiency in diets of ruminants, which leads to their growth, development and increased productivity.
Urea is provided with ready-mixed feed, concentrated mixture or silo, thoroughly mixed. Feeding doses with ready-mixed feed or concentrates (grain feed):
It is introduced with molasses as 1:8–9. When feeding with the silo, the additive is mixed with the silo immediatelybefore livestock feeding in the ratio of up to 1% of the silo mass, or the silo is treated with an aqueous solution prepared 1-3 hours before consumption in the ratio of 1 kg of urea per 2-3 litres of water.The daily dose is fed for 2-3 times. The highest daily dose of feed urea per 5 kg of live weight of cattle and sheep shall not exceed 1 g.
Monocalcium phosphate is a food supplement for livestock and poultry diet to replenish calcium and phosphorus that contribute to the formation of strong bone tissue and skeleton, improve metabolism, functions of the nervous, immune and reproductive systems, increase productivity. Mineral additives of this composition are especially recommended for feeding herbivorous animals.
By phosphorus content and availability, monocalcium phosphate meets the world market’s requirements both in terms of satisfaction of the physiological need of poultry for phosphorus and in terms of environmental protection.
