Growvit-A – High Potency Vitamin- A for Poultry

Vitamin A deficiency in poultry can lead to various health issues, impacting growth, reproduction, and overall well-being. It can also lead to poor growth, weakness, and decreased egg production.

Vitamin A is crucial for poultry as it supports growth, eye health, and the maintenance of moist surfaces on the body. It is necessary for average growth, reproduction, and maintaining the health of epithelial cells, including those in the skin and linings of the digestive, reproductive, and respiratory tracts. Its deficiency can lead to nutritional problems characterised by conjunctivitis, oculonasal discharge, and eyelids stuck together with thick exudates. Vitamin A is essential for normal vision, and severe deficiency can cause blindness due to a lack of retinene and structural damage to the eyes.

 Here are some critical points about Vitamin A Deficiency :

Symptoms of Vitamin A Deficiency in Poultry:

1. Poor Growth: Stunted growth and weight loss.
2. Vision Problems: Night blindness or squinting due to impaired vision.
3. Skin Issues: Rough, dry skin or feather problems.
4. Respiratory Problems: Increased susceptibility to respiratory infections.
5. Reproductive Issues: Reduced egg production and fertility problems in breeding hens.

Causes of Vitamin A Deficiency in Poultry:

• Inadequate Diet: Lack of vitamin A-rich ingredients like green forage, liver, and fish meal in the diet.
• Poor Absorption: Issues with fat absorption can impair vitamin A utilisation, as it is a fat-soluble vitamin.
• Storage Conditions: Improper feed storage can lead to vitamin degradation.

Prevention and Treatment of Vitamin A Deficiency in Poultry:

1. Balanced Diet: Ensure a balanced diet that includes sources of carotenoids (like green leafy vegetables) or fortified feeds.
2. Supplementation: Use vitamin A supplements as needed.
3. Regular Monitoring: Conduct regular health checks to catch deficiencies early.

Addressing vitamin A deficiency in poultry promptly is crucial for maintaining the health and productivity of poultry.
