Esseention Red & Yellow? - Color and Health, You can Have Them Both in Poultry
Color Matters As Much As Health in Livestock Products
The “color appeal” of livestock products significantly influences consumer perception. The color of products like egg yolks is determined by the carotenoid content and type in the feed. NHU has developed a complete production chain for Canthaxanthin (Esseention Red?) and β-Apo-8′-carotenoic acid ethyl ester (Esseention Yellow?) and conducted extensive research on their applications. Ms. Li Mengying provided a detailed explanation on selecting pigment products, application solutions, and key considerations for addressing various coloring needs in animal breeding, helping farmers enhance their product competitiveness.
Prof. Zhou Yanmin, Nanjing Agricultural University
Features of Late-Stage Laying Hens and Feed Strategies to Boost Productivity
How Should the Late-Stage Laying Hens be Managed?
Given the challenges of cost, profitability, and demand, extending the peak laying period of laying hens, enhancing their productivity, and improving egg quality in the later stages have become key industry concerns. In this context, Prof. Zhou discussed nutritional strategies, raw material choices, and the use of functional products, highlighting the roles and effects of taurine, amino acid chelates, vitamin E, and other products in managing the late stage of laying hens.
02 Exploring Issues and Exchanging Insights
At the conclusion of each presentation, attendees engaged in detailed discussions with experts about product applications, technical optimizations, and industry trends. This interactive exchange not only enhanced participants' comprehension of the benefits of animal nutrients in poultry feed but also offered new ideas and methods for addressing practical issues, fostering innovative thinking and collaboration within the industry. For NHU, this forum served as both a learning and networking opportunity, as well as a platform for broadening perspectives, building professional connections, and advancing industry progress.

The aquafeed market has been highly volatile in recent months. With fishmeal prices remaining elevated and supplies increasingly tight, the cost pressures associated with high-fishmeal formulations continue to weigh on both feed manufacturers and aquaculture producers. To mitigate these pressures, the industry has increasingly turned to alternative protein sources—including plant, insect and microbial proteins—and adopted low-fishmeal formulations.
