Abstract

The global rise in the prices of feed materials called for ways to reduce the cost of feed consumed (as the cost of feed constitutes 60-70% of the cost of poultry breed) and at the same time provide balanced feeds in terms of the availability of energy, protein, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals. Feed fermentation is a cheap method, and it is very easy through which it is possible to improve the level of nutrients necessary for the needs of birds and improve the readiness and efficiency of benefiting from the feed, whether the fermentation is done for the whole feed or each feed material separately, as studies indicate an increase in the level of protein, vitamins, and minerals in the fermented feed materials, and that the process of drying the feed and then Converting it into pellets is a new and necessary method, as it increases the ease of handling, transporting, and storing fermented feed materials, as it was at the beginning fermented the feed and provided wet for the birds, and this makes it difficult to transfer the feed through the automatic feeder. Therefore, the method of fermenting and pelleting the feed is a modern and promising technology in the farm poultry industry.
