In production of feeds and nutrition of animals, to benefit from biotechnology in order to increase the amount and quality of animal products while using natural source efficiently.
To maintain sustainable and economical animal production using feedstuffs withincreased nutrient content and bioavailability and feed additives having potential to promote digestion and immunity which all provided by advances in the biotechnology.
| 1. | Enables less feed consumption per unit of animal products as a result of feeding animals with transgenic feed stuffs. |
| 2. | Using biotechnology,wastes of food industry can be converted products that support health and production of farm animals (oligosaccharides) |
| 3. | The efficacy of the feed additives those enhance intestine health and digestibility of nutrients could be improved by biotechnological applications (encapsulation of essential oils, organic acids). |
| 4. | In agriculture animals, digestibility and absorption efficacy of protein, phosphorus and trace minerals could be increased by biotechnology while reducing the fecal excretion of these macro and micro nutrients (Phytase, organic minerals, and protected proteins). |
| 5. | Microbial feed additives for food producing animals |
