Intestinal health is now one of the central pillars of productive efficiency in poultry farming. More than just a digestive organ, the intestine acts as a strategic interface between nutrition, immunity, and zootechnical performance. The integrity of the intestinal mucosa, the stability of the microbiota, and the control of subclinical inflammation are decisive factors for feed conversion, weight gain, and flock uniformity.
In this context, tannins have become prominent as natural functional additives, capable of directly modulating the intestinal environment. When the source, type of tannin, and appropriate dosage are correctly selected, tannins contribute to:
- reducing the pressure of pathogenic microorganisms,
- improving the integrity of the intestinal mucosa,
- balancing the microbiota,
- and promoting a more controlled inflammatory response, increasing the nutrient absorption area.
In systems increasingly challenged by the reduction in antibiotic use, tannins are consolidating as important tools to maintain intestinal health without compromising performance, aligning productivity, animal welfare, and sustainability.
Meet us at the Brazil South Poultry Symposium
From April 7th to 9th, the Brazil South Poultry Symposium will take place in Chapecó (SC), one of the main technical events in the sector. Seta, together with its Animal Nutrition team, will be present to follow technical updates, exchange experiences, and strengthen relationships with clients and partners.
It will be an excellent opportunity to discuss nutritional strategies focused on intestinal health, share knowledge about the use of tannins in modern poultry farming, and explore the sector’s challenges and opportunities.
THE USE OF TANNINS TO OPTIMIZE HEALTH AND PERFORMANCE:
Animal protein production faces increasing challenges related to productivity and animal health, especially in a market where efficiency and cost control are essential. For producers, improving zootechnical indices and ensuring sustainable operations requires adopting innovative and technological nutritional solutions that meet the specific needs of each species without compromising profitability.
Tannins have been established as an effective alternative in animal nutrition. These natural additives promote benefits such as microbiota modulation, immune strengthening, and improved nutrient digestibility. By introducing precision nutrition concepts combined with these ingredients, it is possible to optimize productive performance and reduce the incidence of digestive disorders, enhancing nutritional efficiency.
Our portfolio of natural solutions, serving segments such as poultry, swine, cattle, goats, and sheep, has been developed to maximize the benefits of tannins for each species, contributing to intestinal health and animal welfare.
With innovative and adaptable technologies, we provide producers with a customized approach that delivers consistent results, improving productive performance and sustainability across the agribusiness value chain.
