Effect of different types and levels of fat addition and pellet binders on physical pellet quality of broiler feeds.
Poultry Science(2019)
摘要
Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of different types and levels of mixer-added fat (soybean oil: SO and calcium fat powder: CFP) and pellet binders (PBs: calcium lignosulfonate (CaLS) and bentonite (Ben)) on physical pellet quality (PPQ) parameters. PPQ included pellet durability index (PDI), pellet hardness, and pellet length of broiler diets processed under short-term conditioning. The first experiment had 4 treatments arranged as a 2 × 2 factorial with 2 types (SO and CFP) and 2 levels (1.5 and 3%) of mixer-added fat. In the second experiment, 22 treatments, combinations of 2 types of mixer-added fat (SO and CFP) at 3 levels (0, 1.5 and 3%) and 2 types of PB (CaLS = 0, 0.5, and 1% and Ben = 0, 1, and 2%), were arranged by a completely randomized design. PDI was measured by 2 devices: Pfost Tumbling box (PDIT) and Holmen NHP tester (PDIH). The results showed that the diets containing 1.5% CFP without PB had significant differences in all PPQ parameters. The results revealed that adding 0.5% CaLS to the 3% SO diets significantly enhanced PDIH, pellet hardness, and pellet length compared to other treatments. Moreover, 1.5% CFP diets with 2% Ben had significantly higher PDIT, PDIH, and pellet hardness among the treatments. Based on contour plots, different levels of Ben in the diets containing SO failed to create optimum PDIT values (>96%). However, 1.5 to 2.50% CFP diets without Ben had the optimum PDIT values. The optimum PDIT value was achieved by the diets containing 3% SO in the range of 0.21 to 0.56% CaLS. Furthermore, adding 0.5% CaLS to the diets containing less than 2.86% SO resulted in suboptimal PDIT values (<96%). The diets containing 1.5 to 2.50% CFP without CaLS had the optimum PDIT values. However, increasing CaLS levels more than 0.38% led to suboptimal PDIT values. Overall, these results indicated that the selection of appropriate PBs should be based on type and level of mixer-added fat.
