Effects of corn particle size distributions and formic acid on productive and processing performance of broilers

SUMMARY: Formic acid (FA) decreases the pH of feed, which could create a less favorable environment for bacteria and improve the efficacy of digestive enzymes. However, research evaluating the effects of feeding coarse corn (CC) particle size distributions and FA to broilers is sparse. The present s...
