19. Early stage feeding of spray dried porcine plasma to
improve health and performance of broilers in the
presence and absence of challenge with necrotic enteritis
(Prof Bob Swick)
• Outcome - This work indicates that early inclusion of SDPP
enhances performance and improves gut health.
• Early feeding of 2% SDPP in the starter period (first 10 days)
improved feed conversion (feed:gain) by 4.5 points (1.078 to 1.033)
from day 0 to day 8 and by 1.5 points (1.413 to 1.398) from day 0 to
day 29. Economic analysis of SDPP inclusion indicated that the
product would need to be priced between AUD 4 and 5 per kg to
break even. Further work should examine shorter periods of
inclusion perhaps at higher doses to reduce cost.
20. Ileal Ca digestibility (Dr Xiuhua Li)
Objectives/aims
• Collaborate with international researchers (South Africa and USA)
to validate/consolidate the method for ileal digestible Ca
determination in meat chickens.
• Modify the method for Australian poultry diets.
• In progress…
21. Evaluation of different sources of copper in
meat chickens
(Dr Nischchal Sharma)
• To investigate performance of broilers offered diets with varying
sources and levels of copper
• There were no significant differences between dietary treatments in
performance, carcass or organ health characteristics over the duration
of the trial. The likelihood is that added copper is having a benefit to
performance through protecting the gut under non-optimal growing
conditions.. To demonstrate this concept within a research setting, it is
possible that a challenge, be it environmental (such as heat stress) or
biological (such as subclinical necrotic enteritis or coccidiosis) may be
needed to show a response. In particular, the protective effect of added
copper to prevent or lessen the burden of coccidiosis may be worth
investigating in the future.
22. CoRouge copper inclusion to
mitigate coccidiosis
(Dr Amy Moss)
• Aim: to determine if 100 ppm CoRouge Cu inclusion will reduce impact of
coccidiosis challenge
• Challenge: E. maxima and E. acervulina gavaged into crop at d 14
• Fecal samples collected daily from 17-28 d post-hatch, sampling at 21 and 35 d.

25. Evaluation of precision feeding to enhance
broiler growth efficiency (Dr Amy Moss)
• The precision nutrition adjusted treatment numerically improved feed
cost by 3.2 cents/kg live weight, representing a reduction in cost of
4.13%.
• If it were to cost $50,000 per shed to upgrade to the precision nutrition
equipment, then it would cost the industry an investment of $150 million
to incorporate it into every broiler shed.
• It would take about 3.5 to 4 years for the savings generated by precision
nutrition to cover the investment cost.
• Beyond this, the poultry industry would also benefit from a reduced CV
(which may bring savings at the processing plant) and the ability to
adjust the diet blends to tailor the diet to the growth (or intake or health
status) of the chickens.
26. The effect of AM/PM diets on feed efficiency,
egg quality and welfare parameters for free-
range layer hens (Dr Amy Moss)
• This study will compare a conventional layer hen diet with an
AM/PM feeding diet from 20 to 40 weeks of age in free-range layer
hens, to demonstrate if AM/PM feeding will improve the efficiency
of production, egg quality, reduce faecal nitrogen (and thereby
environmental pollution) and provide positive welfare benefits
(fewer bone fractures, reduced feather pecking and more time
spent ranging/perching).

The statistical significance of improvement in FCR was lost on day 35 because of high variability during the last week. No SDPP by necrotic enteritis challenge (NE) interactions were detected for bird performance parameters at any time point. This indicated that early feeding of SDPP was effective in both unchallenged and NE challenged birds. An interaction was however detected for gut leakage indicating early feeding of SDPP to be effective in reducing passage of FITCd from gut to serum only in NE challenged birds.
Analysis is still underway but here are some preliminary results from the grower phase – the challenge phase - of the trial..
More results coming soon!
The aim of this project is to permit the daily mixing of a protein dense concentrate with an energy dense component to meet daily nutrient requirements, thereby improving efficiency and profits of the Australian chicken-meat industry. This project uses a novel approach to precisely meet broiler nutrient requirements by utilising modern technologies in collaboration with industry.
Considering that the Australian chicken meat industry produces 1.3 million tonnes of chicken meat per year, this may save the Australian chicken meat industry $41.5 million annually. With 678 million chickens produced a year, and on average 220,000 chicks produced per shed annually (Australian Chicken Meat Federation, 2022), we estimated that there are approximately just over 3,000 broiler sheds in Australia.
