Broiler producers are under increasing pressure from consumers and regulators to reduce their impact on the environment. Nitrogen is one of the major environmental pollutants of concern. Consumed by the animal as protein a proportion is used for growth and metabolism and the remainder enters the environment in manure where it is converted into environmentally damaging compounds, like ammonia, nitrous oxide and nitrate. Such emissions contribute to acidification, global warming and eutrophication. Adding a protease enzyme such as RONOZYME® ProAct to broiler diets can help reduce production of these substances by improving utilization of nitrogen in feed. RONOZYME® ProAct is a heat-stable mono-component protease that complements the activity of the animals own digestive enzymes such as pepsin and pancreatic proteases. The purpose of this calculator is to quantify and help visualize the environmental benefits achievable when RONOZYME® ProAct is added to broiler diets.
