Application Technology of Wheat Instead of Corn in Poultry Materials

This year, wheat prices in various regions have often dropped by 100 yuan/ton or more compared to corn, creating a price inversion between the two grains. This price difference makes wheat an attractive and cost-effective alternative for use in livestock feed. This article provides a detailed overview of how wheat can be used as a substitute for corn in feed formulations, offering practical guidance for feed and aquaculture companies. One key factor to consider is that while the total energy content of corn and wheat is similar, wheat contains 6-8% arabinoxylan, which increases digesta viscosity in the digestive tract. This leads to reduced nutrient digestibility. Replacing some corn with wheat can help save on protein sources like soybean meal. However, wheat has higher amino acid levels than corn but still falls short of soybean meal. If you replace corn with wheat without adjusting the crude protein level, you may need to add synthetic amino acids such as lysine and threonine to maintain nutritional balance. In some cases, this can actually increase costs. It’s recommended to raise the crude protein level slightly when using wheat and focus on balancing essential amino acids. With the addition of wheat enzymes, if wheat is priced 0.1 yuan per kg lower than corn, it becomes economically viable to use wheat at a high substitution rate, helping to reduce overall feed costs. For example, in a corn-soybean meal-based feed formula, the substitution ratio should be adjusted based on the inclusion of by-products like bran or chowder. In poultry diets, wheat can replace up to 10–20% of corn in young birds, and 20–30% in growing, laying, and larger birds. To improve digestion, it's essential to add specialized wheat enzymes or multi-enzymes containing xylanase. When formulating with wheat, several factors must be considered: 1. **Energy**: The metabolizable energy of wheat for chickens is about 3040 Kcal/kg, which is 200 Kcal/kg less than corn. If wheat replaces 30% of corn, the energy drop could be around 40 Kcal/kg, potentially affecting performance. However, adding xylanase can boost energy utilization by 6–7%, increasing the apparent metabolizable energy of wheat by approximately 140–230 Kcal/kg. With proper enzyme use, the energy value of wheat can match that of corn. 2. **Crude Protein**: Replacing corn with wheat at a lower price can increase amino acid levels, but maintaining the same crude protein level may lead to lower levels of certain amino acids like lysine and threonine. Adding synthetic amino acids might not be cost-effective, especially in pig feed. 3. **Linoleic Acid**: Wheat contains only 0.88% linoleic acid, compared to 2% in corn. For pigs, a diet with 0.1% linoleic acid is sufficient, so simple replacement won’t cause deficiency. However, for poultry, 1–1.5% is needed, requiring additional oils or supplements. To keep the formula economical, wheat should be limited to 40% of the diet. 4. **Biotin**: The bioavailability of biotin in wheat is low (5–55%). If the Vitamin premix doesn't account for this, extra biotin may be necessary. When soybean meal is included at 20%, additional biotin may not be needed. Otherwise, 50 mg/kg of biotin should be added. 5. **Phosphorus**: Wheat naturally contains phytase and has a higher phosphorus utilization rate than corn, allowing for reduced inorganic phosphorus supplementation. 6. **Pigment**: Wheat has only 1/9 the pigment content of corn. Yellow-feathered chickens may require artificial pigments or corn gluten meal, while white-feathered chickens are not affected. 7. **Other Considerations**: Wheat protein content varies widely, so testing is recommended. Also, wheat contaminated with Gibberella may have estrogenic effects, which should be monitored. In terms of processing, wheat should not be ground too finely, as this can reduce palatability and intake. It is recommended to crush each grain into 4–6 pieces, with a hammer mill sieve size of 3–3.5 mm for optimal digestion and feed efficiency. During the transition process, wheat should be introduced gradually over 7–10 days to avoid digestive issues.
