In many broiler production systems, feed is the biggest single cost and profitability depends on the relative cost and nutritive value of the feed ingredients available.

Sourcing better value ingredients provides a means for increased profit whilst maintaining bird performance. Betafin is a more efficient and potentially lower cost alternative to added methionine and/or choline as methyl group donors.

Betacheck is a pc-based economic model that calculates the amount of methionine and/or choline that can be replaced by Betafin in broiler diets.

Betacheck takes into account factors that affect the bird's methyl requirement, e.g. bird age, management conditions and dietary amino acid levels. A safety margin is also included for methionine and sulphur amino acids, to account for variation in feed ingredient quality.

Betacheck is a valuable tool to help you reduce feed costs and maximise profit by making the most efficient use of Betafin.
