Customized feeding: tailor-made feeds for species and growth phases
Animal nutrition has evolved towards a more precise and personalized approach, similar to what happens in human nutrition. Each species and growth stage has unique nutritional requirements that affect their health, welfare and productive performance. In this context, customized feeds have emerged as an advanced solution that optimizes feeding according to the specific needs of the animals.
Instead of using standard feeds for all species, customized feeding adjusts nutrients precisely. For example, a rapidly growing piglet needs a diet rich in protein and essential amino acids to build muscle mass, while an adult laying hen requires a higher concentration of calcium for optimal egg production. These feeds meet the exact needs of the animals at each stage of their life cycle, maximizing performance and minimizing waste of resources.
In addition, technology is driving this trend towards precision nutrition. Today, thanks to tools such as data analysis and artificial intelligence, it is possible to monitor factors such as gut health, metabolism and feeding behavior of animals, which facilitates the formulation of highly specific diets. This approach is also adapted to production objectives, such as improving feed conversion or reducing environmental impact.
