Positive impacts of integrating flaxseed meal as a potential feed supplement in livestock and poultry production: Present scientific understanding

When it comes to food and fiber production, flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum) has been around the longest. Oil makes up over 41% of a flaxseed's total weight; that, more than 70% is polyunsaturated. Protein, dietary fiber, α-linolenic acid (ALA), gum, many other beneficial compounds are abundant in meal (FSM). There as much 30% crude protein FSM. Therefore, FSM can serve source excellent for livestock. increases efficiency effectiveness livestock poultry farming. be used an essential feed component cattle farming, boosting production profitability. Because contains anti-nutritional ingredients such cyanogenic glycosides, tannins, phytic acid, oxalic anti-vitamin B6 factor, use diets restricted. Animal nutritionists have recently shown growing interest reducing elements FSM's nutritional value. Recently, fermented poultry; hence its benefits not yet fully assessed. The present article, therefore, addresses chemical make-up, bioactive components, aspects, positive impacts production.
