AI-powered sensors and IoT devices can monitor real-time data on bird weight, feed intake, environmental conditions, and health parameters
-
feed formulating based on climate condition, birds requirement of quality parameters, feeding system implementation, record keeping etc..
-
1. Data collection and monitoring
2. AI nutritional adjustment
3. Automated precision feeding systems
4. Predictive analysis for feed efficiency
5. AI gut microbiome management
6. AI Feed ingredient traceability and quality assurance

Animal nutrition is constantly evolving, especiallywhen it comes to productivity management, and wehave seen great genetic progress in recent years.Layers are no exception, showing increased eggproduction and excellent production persistence.
To reach high production and persistence, it is crucial toimprove feed efficiency with an optimum nutritionprogramme, especially in the early stages. Several geneticcompanies make recommendations for the nutrition andfeeding of their pullets, showing some variations in thelevel of protein, amino acids, energy, etc. Therefore, it isimportant to bear the pullets’ growth pattern in mindduring breeding.
From 0 to 6 weeks
This period is characterised by the development of thechick’s digestive and immune systems. We find that duringthe first few days, most of the nutrients are directed
towards the development of organs (small intestine, largeintestine, liver, kidney, heart, etc.).
At this stage, the protein level (amino acids) is veryimportant, while the energy level is not as critical. Earlyprotein feeding increases muscle potential (satellite cellrecruitment). It should be noted that during the postnatalperiod satellite cells provide the myonuclear bases forskeletal muscle growth and they decrease as time goes by.
From 6 to 12 weeks
This period is characterised by the growth of bones,muscles and feathers. After this stage, 95% of the skeletonis already developed and the protein intake still has animpact on bodyweight. By 12 weeks of age, the proteinlevel is not that crucial whereas the energy intake is key,and any deficiency will impact weight gain.Animal nutrition is constantly evolving, especiallywhen it comes to productivity management, and wehave seen great genetic progress in recent years.Layers are no exception, showing increased eggproduction and excellent production persistence.
