Organic trace minerals in poultry feed offer several benefits, including improved bioavailability and utilization, leading to enhanced growth, egg production, and overall health. These minerals, often in the form of chelates or proteinates, are better absorbed than their inorganic counterparts, resulting in a more efficient and effective nutrient supply for poultry. In commercial practice, inorganic trace minerals (ITM) are used to supplement 2–10 times than the amounts recommended by the National Research Council for poultry diets, However, the bioavailability of inorganic minerals is significantly low as a considerable amount is lost and excreted through the feces due to antagonistic effects with substances present in the poultry diet. High inclusion level will leads to the mineral wastage and environmental pollution due to excessive excretion by the birds .
Trace minerals are indispensable components in poultry diets. Minerals like Calcium, Phosphorus, and Manganese play a major role in growth, bone development of birds, whereas Copper and Zinc are responsible for maintaining the feather color. There are two forms of trace elements available to birds ie., Inorganic and Organic form. Trace minerals in inorganic forms such as oxides, chlorides, carbonates and sulfates salts are used for a long time in poultry diets. Organic trace minerals are more readily absorbed and utilized by the birds compared to inorganic forms, which can be less digestible and can interact with other nutrients in the feed, reducing their availability.
