Calcium Carbonate for Animal Feed: A Trusted Source of Nutrition in the Philippines
Calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) is one of the most widely used feed additives in the animal feed industry. For poultry, swine, cattle, and aquaculture, calcium plays a critical role in growth, bone development, eggshell formation, and overall health. In the Philippines, where the livestock and poultry feed market is rapidly expanding, calcium carbonate has become an essential raw material for feed producers.
Why Use Calcium Carbonate in Animal Feed?
Source of Calcium – Provides a stable and cost-effective supply of calcium for bone strength and eggshell quality.
Digestive Aid – Helps regulate pH in the animal’s digestive system, improving feed conversion.
Cost Efficiency – Compared to other calcium sources (like dicalcium phosphate), calcium carbonate is more affordable while maintaining high effectiveness.
Multi-Sector Usage – Suitable for poultry (layer and broiler feed), swine, cattle, aquaculture, and pet food formulations.
Quality Requirements for Feed Grade Calcium Carbonate
High Purity: CaCO₃ content > 98%
Low Impurities: MgO and Fe₂O₃ within acceptable feed limits
Fine Particle Size: Ensures uniform mixing in feed formulation
Whiteness & Consistency: Indicators of purity and stable supply
Applications in the Philippine Feed Industry
Poultry Feed: Enhances eggshell strength in layer hens and supports rapid bone development in broilers.
Swine Feed: Improves skeletal growth in piglets and supports reproductive performance in sows.
Cattle Feed: Provides necessary calcium for milk production and strong bones.
Aquaculture: Helps maintain water pH balance and provides trace calcium for fish and shrimp growth.
