Applications of zeolite in animal breeding
Zeolite has many applications not only in agriculture but also in animal breeding because of it formula. Here are the beneficial properties of zeolite in animal breeding:
- Zeolite traps the toxins in animal feed and removes them from the digestive system
and the blood circulation system. - Zeolite contributes to better digestion and overall function of the digestive system of
animals, as it traps ammonia and contributes to the balancing of pH. - Zeolite traps the heavy metals as well as the substances which usually cause
allergies to animals. - There has been observed an up to 20% increase in milk production and body weight
of animals when the animal feed contains zeolite. - Zeolite increases the metabolic energy that the animal absorbs from food.
- Zeolite contributes to the healthy growth of the animal skeleton.
- Zeolite drastically reduces the need for antibiotics as it strengthens their immune
system. - Zeolites helps control smells – mostly those of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide – in
places allocated to conservation and storage of food coming from farm units. - Zeolite reduces the vexing smells of manure.
