INTRODUCTION
Table 1 b
Feed additives are products used in animal
nutrition for purposes of improving the
quality of feed and the quality of food from
animal origin or to improve the animals
performance and health. The initial use of
antibiotics in diets arose from the discovery
in the late 1940's, in the United States that
including the fermentation products of
Streptomyces aureofaciens (a strain of
bacteria) in the diets of simple-stomached
animals such as pigs and poultry resulted in
growth responses (Frost, 1991). It is
important to make a distinction between
antibiotics used in the treatment and
prevention of disease in farm animals
(prescribed therapeutic and prophylactic
use) which differs from their use as feed
additives to enhance growth (Castanon,
2007). As feed additives, antibiotics are used

significant mortalties.
Trial design:
Two flocks in different sheds housed
approximately 25,400 birds each. As a part
of the trial, layers in one of the sheds were
fed Sangrovit WS through water medication
@ 100 grams per 1000 liters in continuous
water for a period of 5 days. Tables 1 a & b
show the flock performance in both
Sangrovit treated (ST) and untreated control
(UTC) flocks over a period of 15 days, that
comprise of 10 days of data recording before
Sangrovit treatment actually started in the
ST flocks and later 5 days of data recording
during the course of the treatment in both ST
and UTC flocks.
Results and Discussions:
Feed Intake: Feed intake reduced by 8.5% in
control group and 9.7% in Sangrovit group
respectively.
Egg Production: The number of egg trays in
the ST group increased by 1.4%. On the
contrary, the egg trays in UTC reduced by
0.5%. The total number of egg trays in
control was 675 which reduced to 672 after 5
days, whereas in the ST group the number of
trays went up from 679 to 689 during the 5
days course of treatment with Sangrovit WS.
Mortalities: The mortalities in the ST group
were 31% lower as compared to the UTC
group.
Conclusion
There are so many advantages of using herbs
than antibiotics. Phytogenic feed additives
may have the potential to promote
production performance and productivity
and thus add to the set of nonantibiotic
growth promoters such as organic acids and
probiotics. Even antibiotics can't be used
during laying period of chickens due to
residual effect in eggs. Sangrovit WS is a
research product from Phytobiotics GmbH,
a natural feed additive company from
Germany. Farmers can easily use Sangrovit
WS in their layer, broiler and parent stock
without any residual effect. Even Sangrovit
can be used during the laying period.

Private equity firms eye Australian poultry company Inghams
NEWS

Two private equity firms, US-based Blackstone and Hong-Kong based Affinity Equity Partners are likely to make a bid for Australia's leading
poultry processor Inghams Enterprises.
The indicative bids for the business are expected to be launched next week, and the sale is expected to fetch about A$1.4bn ($1.42bn) , which is about
six or seven times Ingham's fiscal 2013 earnings.
Global buyout companies and international trade buyers are also showing interest over the acquisition of Inghams, reported the Sydney Morning
Herald, citing sources with knowledge of the matter.The sale is likely to be finalised before the end of 2012.
In July 2012, Ingham's only shareholder, Bob Ingham, put the business up for sale and appointed Investec Bank to handle the divestment.It was
reported that the everyday operations of Inghams will continue as usual under the direction of CEO Kevin McBain and his team until a deal is
finalised.
The sale process will be closely evaluated by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC), as both Inghams and rival poultry
firm Baiada, whose main customers include Coles and Woolworths respectively, control 75% of the 834,000t/yr chicken meat market in Australia.
Australian food companies have been attracting interest from private equity firms and other Asian buyers over the past two years, due to strong sales
despite a slowdown in the economy.

Hester acquires the business of Innoves
Animal Health Private Limited
Hester entered into a Business Transfer Agreement (BTA) with Innoves

marketing of Large Animal Health Products for the dairy.
Through the BTA, Hester has acquired the products, the brands and the
marketing network of Innoves. All the employees of Innoves including
the key management team have joined Hester.
Innoves product brands CURX, PROTIN-C, BETA4VET, HIFCR are
well accepted in the dairy market. This acquisition of the Innoves
business is in line with Hester's business plans to set up a Large Animal
Health Division.
Hester now has a ready platform to launch its Large Animal Health
business which will not only market Innoves products, but also the
Hester range of large animal products and large animal vaccines.
Hester would be launching its own large animal health product range
through the newly acquired Innoves marketing infrastructure. The
