360° Poultry: Future-Focused Nutrition

360° Poultry: Future-Focused Nutrition

Cargill Micronutrition & Health Solutions

The challenge of feeding a growing global population remains complex with poultry meat and egg consumption projected to grow by 15% by 2032 – accounting for 41% of all protein consumed from meat sources worldwide. Advancements in nutrition are therefore more important than ever. Cargill Animal Nutrition and Health’s (ANH) holistic approach can support producers as their one-stop solution for meeting global demand and achieving their goals. Let’s take a closer look at what this means.

Achieving efficiency and profitability

The biggest challenge for the global poultry industry in the next few years is to produce more efficiently to meet demand while ensuring profitability. Cargill ANH supports producers through its nutritional expertise, Micronutrition and Health Solutions business, and digital solutions portfolio. These combine perfectly to optimize:

• Feed formulation: Optimized feed improves efficiency, and Cargill ANH helps chickens get the most nutrients from their feed, grow well, and produce less waste. For example, nutrient absorption can be improved by managing gut bacteria and adding health-supporting ingredients. Furthermore, providing the right nutrition to build resilience against diseases like Salmonella and Necrotic Enteritis helps keep flocks healthy and production steady. Cargill’s ANH digital portfolio includes solutions that create precise nutrition plans based on specific needs and goals to support chickens from all angles.

• Ingredient sourcing: Producers need to be strategic about sourcing ingredients to stay profitable. Cargill ANH utilizes alternative and locally sourced ingredients to reduce transportation costs and mitigate global supply chain challenges. Effective supply chain management, supported by Cargill’s ANH technology, ensures the quality and traceability of ingredients.

• Nutritional strategy: As the industry focuses on efficiency and profitability, there is an emphasis on tailoring nutrition to specific goals. For example, some of Cargill’s ANH solutions adjust diets based on the body composition of laying hens, improving egg production, and supporting overall health. Fine-tuning nutritional profiles further supports flocks to remain productive and healthy. This is made possible by the Cargill Nutrition System, which provides real-time insight into nutrient variations and their effects on diets. It ensures customers know everything they need to know to find the best possible combination of nutrition quality and cost. 

Let innovation drive success this year and beyond
