As its name suggests, Poultry Bulk Oil is an oil produced in large quantities without specific packaging for use in the poultry farming industry. This oil is a concentrated energy source and a supplier of essential fatty acids, playing a vital role in poultry nutrition. Let’s delve deeper into poultry bulk oil.
The exact composition of this oil can vary depending on the oil used as a base. However, vegetable oils such as soybean, canola, sunflower, and corn typically form the foundation of these oils. Additionally, certain additives like antioxidants and vitamins may be included.
Poultry bulk oil is a crucial component of poultry feed. The quality of this oil directly impacts the growth, health, and production performance of poultry. Let’s explore why oil quality is important:
Oils are rich in energy, providing the necessary energy for growth and vital activities.
Oils contain essential fatty acids that poultry cannot produce. These fatty acids are vital for growth, skin and feather health, and immune system function.
Oils aid in the digestion and absorption of other nutrients in the feed.
Adding oil can improve feed palatability, leading to increased feed consumption.
Oils can help reduce dust in the feed, thereby reducing respiratory problems in poultry.
Type of Oil: Different oils (such as soybean, canola, and sunflower) have varying fatty acid compositions. The choice of oil depends on the age, breed, and purpose of poultry rearing.
Freshness of Oil: Old and oxidized oils contain harmful compounds that can damage poultry health.
Free Fatty Acid Content: Increased levels of free fatty acids indicate oil spoilage and reduced quality.
Microbial Contamination: The presence of microbial contaminants in oil can cause diseases in poultry.
Additives: Some additives added to oil may affect its quality and performance.
Low-quality oils cannot fully meet the energy and essential fatty acid requirements of poultry, resulting in reduced growth and production performance. Additionally, consuming low-quality and oxidized oils can lead to digestive, liver, and kidney problems in poultry. The use of low-quality oils can negatively impact the quality of meat and eggs produced.
Essential fatty acids are compounds, that poultry cannot produce and must obtain through their diet. These fatty acids play a crucial role in the growth, health, and production performance of poultry.
Essential fatty acids are crucial for building cell membranes, and producing hormones and enzymes, and play a significant role in the growth and development of poultry. These fatty acids help maintain healthy skin and feathers, preventing dryness and brittleness. Essential fatty acids are necessary for the proper functioning of the immune system and increasing poultry resistance to diseases. In laying hens, essential fatty acids affect the quality of egg yolks and the thickness of eggshells.
Poultry bulk oil is packaged in large quantities and is used in poultry and large livestock farms. Aala Oil Sepahan Company, in addition to small packaging, also produces and markets poultry oil in bulk.
