Today, poultry farmers face a unique problem. As demand for poultry products grows rapidly, especially in developing countries, the cost of feeding birds is rising even faster. Feed contributes to nearly 60–70% of total production costs , and the supply of traditional ingredients like maize and soybean is struggling to keep up. To bridge the gap, producers are shifting toward locally available ingredients like wheat bran, rice bran, sunflower meal, or palm meal. These are cost-effective, sure — but they also introduce a new challenge: lower digestibility . Birds often can’t access the full energy in these feeds. That’s where feed enzymes, particularly amylase enzyme in poultry feed , come into play. And this is exactly where ABTL steps in with its enzyme-based precision n...

Let’s keep it simple. Starch equals energy. But birds — especially young chicks — don’t produce enough of their own amylase early in life. Without it, large amounts of starch go undigested, and valuable feed energy is lost. That’s where enzyme supplementation plays a role. When amylase is added to feed, it helps break starch down into glucose, a form birds can immediately absorb and use. In high-starch diets, this single addition significantly boosts energy uptake. Enzyme groups that include amylase , carbohydrases , and fibre-degrading enzymes work together to ensure birds extract more nutrition from every bite — especially when feeds are based on grains like wheat, corn, or sorghum.

It breaks down complex starch molecules into smaller, more digestible sugar...
