Potassium diformate is already a relatively mature alternative solution in the aquaculture industry

 In the process of breeding pigs, broilers, and aquatic products, due to the high breeding density, many farmers are accustomed to adding various antibiotics to their feed in order to reduce the incidence of infection. Potassium diformate has been relatively mature in these breeding industries. The reduction of antibiotic use in place of antibiotics has caused a serious blow to the breeding industry, and the anti-resistance policy will be truly implemented.

It is relatively easy to ban resistance in feed, but it is not so easy to ban and limit resistance at the breeding end. It can improve intestinal health and achieve healthy breeding.

The nutritional functions of potassium diformate on animals mainly include:

(1) It is acidic and can pass through the stomach. It can improve the environment in the digestive tract and lower the pH of the stomach and small intestine. According to experimental research, 85% can pass through the stomach to reach the small intestine, promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the intestine, and inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria.

(2) Instead of antibiotics, it has the effect of antibacterial and growth-promoting agents. The addition of potassium diformate can significantly reduce the content of anaerobic bacteria, Escherichia coli and Salmonella in the digesta of the digestive tract. Improve the resistance of animals to diseases and reduce the number of deaths due to bacterial infections.

(3) Produce green non-resistant feed to reduce environmental emissions. Potassium diformate can promote the digestion and absorption of protein and energy by animals, and it can also improve the digestion and absorption of various trace components such as nitrogen and phosphorus by animals.

(4) Preventing piglet diarrhea can significantly increase the daily weight gain and feed conversion rate of pigs. Due to its special slow-release effect, the acidification effect is better than that of commonly used compound acidifiers.

(5) Potassium content is higher, about 27-28%. Potassium plays an important role in maintaining osmotic pressure, regulating acid-base balance, participating in energy metabolism, and maintaining normal neuromuscular function. It is an indispensable substance for life. 

Potassium diformate is the simplest organic acid derivative as a replacement feed additive. It has no structure similar to carcinogens, low toxicity and no genetic toxicity, and can meet the requirements of being a feed additive in the industry. Especially for a large number of small and medium-sized feed and breeding companies, who lack a mature anti-anti solution, you might as well try the use of potassium diformate.
