Arginine is one of the amino acid components, but also one of the important units of protein. For people specializing in animal husbandry, buying feed containing a certain arginine component has a very good effect on better promoting the growth, reproduction and immunity of livestock. It can be seen that during the selection of feed for livestock, it is necessary to mainly see whether its ingredients contain a certain amount of arginine.
Application of arginine in mammals
In the feeding process of mammals, whether it is necessary to supplement arginine depends on the growth and development stage, physical health state and other factors. Taking sows as an example, appropriate addition during the gestation process of sows can better improve the plasma estradiol content and placental weight of sows, so as to better improve the quality of sows' litter and stock rate. At the same time, it is also very important for lifting the weight of the pig.
The role of arginine in domestic birds
In addition to the nutrition of the general amino acid components, it can better enhance the immunity of poultry and reduce the probability of death due to viral infection in the fight against avian influenza diseases caused by some bacteria, viruses or parasitic diseases.
The proportion of arginine in feed produced by different manufacturers varies greatly, and not all animals can supplement this ingredient at any time. It is recommended that when purchasing, be sure to pay attention to communicating with the seller or the manufacturer about the period of their livestock, so as not to add improper feed and have a negative effect on their feeding, affecting the normal growth and development of animals or reproduction.
