Calcium formate USES:
As a new feed additive.Calcium formate was fed to increase weight, and calcium formate was used as feed additive for piglets.Adding 1% ~ 1.5% calcium formate to the diet of piglets can significantly improve the performance of weaned piglets.The German study found that adding 1.3% calcium formate to the diet of weaned piglets could improve the feed conversion rate by 7% ~ 8%, and adding 0.9% could reduce the occurrence of diarrhea in piglets.
