Boosting Poultry Production: The Power of Protein Management

Unlocking the full potential of your poultry starts with smarter protein management. Introducing Jefo Protease: your ally in reducing feed costs, using alternative proteins, and ensuring top-notch intestinal health.
The hidden challenges of protein management in poultry nutrition
Managing protein in poultry diets is essential, but it's not always straightforward. Here's why variability often hampers performance:
- Feed/Raw materials: price fluctuations and supply issues can affect your choices.
- Anti-nutritional factors: naturally present in many raw materials, these compounds can hinder nutrient absorption and reduce overall feed efficiency.
- Animal factors: protein digestibility varies health status and more.
- Microbiota influence: undigested protein can ferment improperly in the gut, promoting harmful bacteria and compromising intestinal health.
These challenges can limit your birds' growth and productivity.

Streamlining feed protein: why it matters
Optimizing feed means focusing on digestible protein. It’s key to improving bird's performance and reducing costs. However, controlling the non-digestible protein fraction is crucial, as it can fuel harmful bacteria and compromise gut health. Here's the breakdown:
- Small intestine: where digestible proteins are absorbed, directly supporting growth and productivity.
- Hindgut: non-digestible proteins can lead to inflammation.
How Jefo Protease enhances feed efficiency
With Jefo Protease, you're not just cutting feed costs, you're boosting efficiency. This enzyme supports better protein digestion and ensures consistent results, even with raw material variability.
- Cost savings: Minimize protein waste for more efficient and economical feeding.
- Tailored support: Customize your approach with expert guidance on species, diet type, and protein challenges.

Enhancing intestinal integrity with reduced non-digestible protein
By using Jefo Protease, you enhance nutrient absorption in the small intestine while reducing non-digestible proteins in the hindgut. This leads to:
- Lowered nitrogen emissions, improving environmental and air quality.
- Better litter conditions, reducing the risk of diseases like pododermatitis.
- A strategic reduction in protein content help manage heat stress.
