5 reasons a new innovation is redefining poultry nutrition
With rising feed costs and increasing pressure for sustainable poultry production, nutritionists are seeking smarter solutions to maximise diet efficiency. One standout innovation is Lysoforte Extend, a unique blend of lysolecithin, synthetic emulsifiers, and monoglycerides that has consistently delivered improvements in growth, feed cost efficiency, and environmental impact.
Here are 5 reasons that this product is becoming essential in modern poultry nutrition programmes.
Superior fat digestion from the start
In early life stages, broilers have underdeveloped digestive systems that limit fat absorption. Lysoforte Extend acts as a nutrient absorption enhancer, improving fat emulsification, hydrolysation and micelle formation – each key for optimal energy uptake.
In a recent 42-day trial with Ross 308 broilers, supplementation significantly increased body weight gain by 2.4% to 6.5%, regardless of diet energy level. Better fat digestion translates directly into improved growth performance.
Advanced formulation for broader benefits
Unlike products based solely on lysolecithin, this blend combines lysolecithin, synthetic emulsifiers, and monoglycerides for a synergistic effect. This enhanced formulation not only improves fat digestion, but also supports amino acid utilisation and gut health, resulting in better overall nutrient absorption.
Whether you’re formulating for high performance or cost savings, the product delivers more from every feed ingredient.
Stronger margins through improved IOFC
Better digestion means better economics. In the same broiler trial, Lysoforte Extend increased income over feed cost (IOFC) by €87 to €169 per 1,000 birds. Feed conversion ratios improved by up to 3.3% in normal-energy diets and 1.8% in low-energy diets, maximising performance across different formulations. Feed formulators can therefore improve profitability without increasing ration complexity.
A real boost to your sustainability goals
With feed being the largest contributor to poultry’s environmental footprint, improving feed efficiency offers the greatest sustainability gains. Lysoforte Extend significantly reduces both carbon footprint (CFP) and land use change (LUC) by enhancing nutrient absorption.
In trials, supplementation cut CFP by up to 0.29 kg CO₂ eq/kg live weight and reduced LUC by up to 19.8 Pt/kg, without altering raw materials. These reductions demonstrate that productivity and sustainability can go hand in hand.
Built-in flexibility for changing conditions
From economic pressure to ingredient volatility, the poultry industry faces constant change. This product offers robust performance across various energy levels and feed types, providing consistent results when it matters most.
During times of raw material shortages, regulatory pressure, or sustainability demands, Lysoforte Extend acts as a nutritional safety net, maintaining bird performance while helping producers meet evolving challenges.
Conclusion
This is more than an emulsifier – it is a precision tool for maximising nutritional efficiency, economic return, and environmental responsibility. With its proven benefits in growth performance, feed cost control, and sustainability, Lysoforte Extend stands out as a smart, future-ready solution for poultry professionals.
