In broiler nutrition, typically choline and methionine are replaced with betaine. Adding betaine will lead to reduced feed costs, and improved growth and feed conversion ratio.
Product advantages: high purity; superb dispersibility; 20% cost savings on methionine choline; ultra-low hygroscopicity
1. Pigs: low piglet diarrhoea rate, high survival rate, fast weight gain and good meat quality
2. egg-laying poultry: high egg production rate, high shell thickness and hardness, anti-coccidial
3. Meat birds: fast growth, early slaughter, good meat quality, anti-coccidial
4. Aquatic animals: good palatability, improved meat quality, reduced residual bait contamination
ATTENTION: Store in a cool and dry place in the original container and seal the container in time to protect it from moisture.
SHELF LIFE: 24 months
