Superfood:For your animals in Poultry and Pig Farms

Mealworm Meal is a superfood that is transforming the feed on chicken and pig farms.
Its nutritional benefits, backed by concrete studies, position it as an ideal superfood for weaned chicks and piglets as well as for growing and producing animals.

Farms Chicken

Chicks

Starter Superfood:

As in chicks, tenebrio molitor is ideal for weaned piglets due to its high digestibility and nutritional content.

Ideal amount of consumption

A proportion of 5% to 10% of the total feed weight is recommended to ensure adequate nutrient intake without overloading the digestive system of the chick.

Growing Chickens

Improved Growth:

Increases the growth rate and final weight of the chicken and strengthens feathers and skin, thanks to essential amino acids and lipids.

Ideal amount of consumption

For growing chickens, a 10% to 15% inclusion in the diet is optimal.

Studies have shown that the inclusion of Mealworm meal in broiler diets can reduce both growth time and mortality. Broilers fed diets including Mealworm showed an increase in growth rate of approximately 10-15% and mortality rate was reduced by 5-8%.

Farms Pig

Weaned Piglets

Starter Superfood:

Piglets benefit greatly from Mealworm, thanks to its high protein content and essential nutrients that support healthy development and optimal growth.

Ideal amount of consumption

Inclusion of 7% to 12% of the total diet is recommended to support robust and healthy development.

Growing Pigs

Increase in Feed Conversion:

Improves the efficiency with which pigs convert feed to body weight. It also promotes healthy intestinal flora, reducing digestive problems.

Ideal amount of consumption

For growing pigs, a proportion of 12% to 18% of the daily diet is recommended.

A trial conducted by IFIP proposed to evaluate the possibilities of incorporating dried and defatted protein concentrates from Tenebrio molitor larvae into post-weaning feeds.

Incorporating dehydrated Mealworm into the diets of your chickens and pigs is a decision that will have a positive impact on the health of your animals and the sustainability of your production.
