In between rounds, the empty house was disinfected
by Multi Des GA and the water lines were treated
with 3% Intra Hydrocare.The schedule during the
round was for the first week 6 days Intra Nutrimix
followed by 1 day Intra Hydrocare and the following
weeks the schedule was 3 days Intra Liposol, 1 day
Intra Calferol and 1 day Intra Hydrocare. Dosages
according to Intracare’s general recommendations.
The results of the 4 test rounds (354.0000 broilers)
have been compared with 6 previous rounds
(531.000 broilers) for the same houses.
The impact of Intra Hydrocare can be concluded
from the 11% higher water intake. Before we
started the trial, the water quality was been
measured with the Intra Quick Clean scan.The
incoming water was of human grade, while at the
end of the line levels close to 1.000 RLU were
registered. Despite they were using an electrolysis
system (generating 24/7 chlorine on the water),
but this worked insufficiently. During the 4 test
rounds, the clean water system and sanitised water
supported the water consumption, while these
rounds fell in winter, which makes it even more
remarkable.
The booster effect of Intra Nutrimix can be clearly
observed by the additional weight at 7 days of +
17 gram (= +10%) to 185 gram.
The improved utilisation of the feed and lower foot
lesion score, which we both often see upon using
Intra Liposol and Intra Calferol, became clear by
a feed conversion improvement of 6 points and a
higher European Broiler Index of 29 points (EBI =
daily weight gain (g) * survival (%) / FCR * 10).
This is mainly realised by needing an average of
166 gram less feed, while the Average Daily Growth
is +2.5 gram higher. Although the foot score lesions
of 8 at the control group was already low, the figure
is more than halved to only 3 points during the trial.
According to Linnea Andersson “we observe that
the broilers are more active in the stables during the
first week, when Intra Nutrimix is on the drinking
water.These trial rounds give a good comfort feeling
of working with the full range of Intracare products
and can be perfectly used by the Stavie Häge team,
to convince the Swedish farmers.”
