Josera tests glycine chelates in swine feed
Josera, a German animal feed company has conducted studies in partnership and
with the University of Wroclaw in Poland to study the influence of glycine
chelates in animal feed.
The study proved the positive and immense influence of glycine chelates
instead of normal chelated minerals and inorganic minerals as used in the
market.
Regarding the glycine chelates following data changed
significantly in pig feeding researches:
- Increased
insemination success of sows
- Higher birth weights of
piglets
- Increased milk protein
-
Increased weight gains
- Increased feed conversion
ratio
- Drastically limited contents of heavy metals in the
manure
The results are used in Josera's feeding concept "Organic
line".
Rumen protected selenium
The company also
carries out a study on the rumen protected selenium which lead to the
development of "Se-protect®", Josera's rumen protected selenium. In the trial
"Se-protect®" showed clear advantages in comparison to other selenium sources:
much cheaper and more profitable than organic selenium (Se-yeast). Josera
developed Se-protect® with "slow release-effect" for the long-term, optimal and
constant selenium supply.
