WATT Poultry webinar logoWatch on demand now to learn how to release cage effects, handle viscosity issues when pelleting and optimize nutrient utilization of feed enzymes. 

In this educational webinar, Professor Sung Woo Kim, from North Carolina State University, will discuss the importance of optimal pH, extrusion temperature, and acid tolerance when manufacturing pellets for poultry and swine feed. He’ll also review how the correct phytase supplementation can improve the utilization of calcium and phosphorus thereby enhancing bone strength, mineral contents, and intestinal health.
