The effectiveness of the use of feed additives "AGROFIT PRO" in the diets of piglets

The article presents the results of studies on the effect of a multi-enzyme feed additive "AGROFIT PRO" on the safety, live weight gain, feed conversion and morpho-biochemical blood parameters of piglets of the rearing group. The investigated additive contains at its core the enzyme phytase and a complex of NPS enzymes, a strain-producer of Penicillium verruculosum, as well as fillers: corn starch; sodium chloride. It is used to improve the digestibility of feed, increase the safety of growth and productivity of farm animals. To set up the experiment, four groups (three experimental and one control) of piglets, 56 heads each, were formed, which were kept in a specialized farm room for the rearing group. During the experiment, all piglets were in identical conditions of keeping and feeding. The research results showed that the safety of piglets in the first and second experimental groups was at the level of 100%, and in the control and third experimental groups it was 96.4%. The increase in the experimental group was 3.8%, 1.2% and 0.3% compared to the control group, and in the experimental groups there was a decrease in feed conversion by 2.1% and 3.4%. Based on the obtained data of the general analysis of the whole blood of piglets, it can be concluded that there are no allergic reactions, pathological and inflammatory processes in the body when giving the experimental animals the studied feed additive. When conducting biochemical studies of blood serum, all the studied parameters were within the intraspecies norms; according to the results of the study, there was no negative effect of the feed additive on the organ systems of the experimental animals under test. A statistically significant difference was recorded between the control and the third experimental group in terms of creatinine, which was higher by 12.9%, and triglycerides by 34.9%.
